So I just decided to add in 3 more schools today. I designated U penn, U Michigan and Pittsburgh. Was this a good idea adding them in so late or just a waste of time?😕
 
its up to you...

if you do not add it and if you see people who applied around this time get interviews for those schools you will regret it...

when you are spending soo much money whats a couple hundred dollars...

If you see it from money perspective and if you do not get in this cycle you will be like ohh i should have done that... I say if you ever feel like that, then DO IT NOW... so no regrets later.

Wow, I checked your predents page and we have practically everything the same. I got a 21 in Ochem and my 1 interview at case is in Jan, but other than that, I am right there with you. I will be interested to see how you do.
 
I was in the same situation since I felt somewhat mixed about my interviews. But then I remembered that there are secondaries, fees, etc that you have to send in, so I decided to not apply for more. Too much of a pain at this point. I would rather use my year off and go teach english overseas and enjoy another year of my life before reapplying next year. It'll cost a boatload of money next year, but what's another grand or two in the long run. And you'll have a year of fun, experience, and more money to save/pay for it regardless. Good luck!
