People on here are psycho.
NO SPIT SPERLOCK!
I frequent the MCAT forums more often, and whenever I see a "Do I really have to study Ochem?" thread, a little part of me dies inside.

I hope so. Maybe the submission rate slowed down in July?Picking up the pace?

Edit: dang, just realized that the 7/5's submitted really early.

This delay has me quite nervous. I posted a question in the Postbac forum with my info, here it is again, below. I'm considering withdrawing my AMCAS app and doing an SMP next year.
Non-traditional student, graduated 2009 with a double B.S. in math and engineering
3.44 cGPA/3.30 sGPA with a flat and slightly downward trend
33Q MCAT - May 2012
Extensive neuroscience research (non-clinical postbac IRTA at the NIH) with three major journal publications, one of those a co-first author.
Over 400 hours clinical volunteering
30 hours shadowing
Decent community service (which I'll be continuing through 2014)
2 excellent LORs from neuroscience PI and an M.D. from whom I took an endocrin class
3 presumably decent LORs from undergrad math professor, undergrad mechanical engineering professor, and clinical volunteering supervisor
Applied 2012-2013 cycle very late (submitted mid-August, secondaries in November) with zero interviews. I submitted my primaries on 7/17 this year and I am strongly, strongly considering withdrawing my application so that I can do it properly next year. I'm concerned about my application for the following reasons: (1) not much of a change from my 2012-2013 application, (2) late primary submission, (3) questionable LORs in terms of school-specific requirements.
I'm considering withdrawing my app and trying again next year, taking advantage of the committee letter at my undergraduate institution and submitting on June 2nd. I intend on taking a physiology evening course in the spring and asking for a letter of recommendation to guarantee at least one bona fide science LOR.
What do you guys think?
They said they made corrections to something like 60% of the courses I entered. When I compare the apps(pre submission ~> verified) side by side...I don't see a differenceI've been following this thread from afar since I submitted 7/16. Finally decided to get an account and not be such a creep. ^Back 5 congrats on getting verified! Must have been torture to be "Under Review" for a week. Everyone else still waiting, hang in there. I would recommend using this limbo to enjoy the last couple of weeks of summer...helps take the edge off 👍🙂
So nobody on here submitted after 8/1? Or are they just too afraid to post it on here for fear of being berated by SDN on being "late"?
I submitted in August and thought I would be fine. But with the slacker ***** verification of amcas and my non-mind blowing stats, I'm seconD guessing myself.
does anyone know:
if my final mcat score would come in September, would AMCAS wait to verify my app for the score to come in? I've been under review/submitted on July 16.
Thanks in advance
Me too. I submitted August 6.
Try and relax about the submission date and the people you see on here. If your scores are within an average range, your ECs decent and you have applied broadly, you have a chance.
submitted 8/27, still waiting, hopefully soon!!
AMCAS is emailing advisors to inform them of how many more applications they are receiving this year, putting some statistics behind their extended verification process. Apparently there is a 6% increase (so far) in applicants. (And apparently for DO it's a 25% increase) I feel like I should just withdraw and reapply the 1st week of next year's cycle.🙁
yeah same. I submitted July 7th. Just got verified. The email literally felt like the most beautiful thing I've seen in my life. I wish I could reapply next year first week but so much money....and a year of my life....🙁
Volisio,
They can verify your primary application without your MCAT score as long as they received your transcript. If you submitted on July 16, then you will be verified sometime in early September. I sent my application a few days after you, so you should be done with verification before me. Cheers.

I think you're in far better shape than I am. At this rate, my verification will happen mid-october cutting it close to the end of interview season for some schools. Many schools have only just starting sending out IIs, so I think you getting verified by now gives you an upper hand over people still sitting 'in AMCAS limbo'.

So I submitted my app on June 30th, and was verified 8/12...but I just received an another email last night at like 11:30pm saying that my application was just processed. When I go to print the application, the processed date is 8/21 as opposed to 8/12....has this happened to anyone?? thanks!

I did, so I'm not super worried. I also called AMCAS this morning, but they said they couldn't tell me what happened. The person I talked to said she had to talk to her supervisor, and that she would call me back, we'll see...but so far I have all my secondaries, so yay for that!Did you hear anything from schools between 8/12 and 8/21? If so, I wouldn't worry.
