I did not apply in the last cycle, but UCLA is one of my highest priority school in my list for the upcoming cycle, even though UCLA would be a reach school for me.
I know that UCLA gets a ton of well qualified applicants who apply early every year. The problem I am facing is that I am a non-trad applicant and my original plan was to take the MCAT in May 19 (score released June 20). However, the more I study, the less confident I feel about the MCAT, so I am thinking about postponing it to at least June 1 (score released July 6) or even June 19 (score released July 18). I am trying my best to stick to May 19th schedule, but with school final coming up along with hospital work, postponing may be needed. Would I be too late for applying to UCLA if my score is sent on 7/18 and my application is complete past mid-July? What are the chances of getting an interview from UCLA when your app is complete in July? (My primary should be complete by no later than 6/25, but verification may take some time). I would love some insight from last year's applicants. Thank you so much in advance.
