I wish you all well in this process. It is intimately familiar to me as I just completed it. With that in mind, I wanted to offer a couple of pointers to maximize your success.
1. Get everything in early. You hear this over and over, but it is true particularly of rolling schools. I would reccommend returning all secondaries within two weeks of receiving them.
2. Travel with your interview suit in the cabin under all circumstances. Nothing is worse than showing up to your interview in jeans.
3. Try to arrange your course schedule to have a day with no classes so that you don't miss that much. Still it makes the semester very hard to be travelling so much. Be prepared for it.
4. If you can, try to talk to a student from each school that you are applying to, either through your school's pre-health office, friends, or family. It makes writing the secondary essays much easier, because you have a taste of what the school is like.
5. Make an effort to get to know the other interviewees. Some of them will be in your first year class and its nice to have some friends going into it!
Good luck! If you have any questions, please ask--I'd love to help you!
