Many MD/PhD sites say something like this:
"Therefore, APPLY EARLY, APPLY EARLY, APPLY EARLY. You are strongly encouraged to submit your AMCAS application by September 1, even if you haven't taken the MCAT exam yet. This allows us to start processing your application. If the rest of your file is complete, once we get your MCAT scores, your file is ready to be screened. "

What deadline is the sept. 1 referring to? When I finish submitting my primary application? secondary application? or when my school submits the recommendation letter packet to the medical school?
what is a good timeline to do things without being cut-throat about deadlines?
