I submitted my PharmCAS on 10/19 and they mailed out my stuff on 11/9.
I took some time for supplemental applications.
Schools that I sent my supplemental applications in early sent me interview dates.

My stats are:
3.18 overall gpa, 3.02 science, 3.41 math.
PCAT 96 bio, 91 chem, 89 math, 9 verbal, 26 reading, 74 composite
English is my second language..

Schools that sent me interview invites are:
LECOM- Bradenton: 12/8,
Appalachian: 12/10,
Buffalo (SUNY): 1/13
University of Maryland Eastern Shore: 2/3.

I'm worried that other schools like UF, VCU, USF, UMaryland, Nova, Mercer
will reply me back for interview late and it gets too competitive..and these schools are upper in my list.

Is my application late compared to the general (because I realized that many schools interview starts on Oct.) ??

I suspect it depends on the school and if they do early decision or not (and how many applicants are accepted early). When I went through the admissions process (several years ago - I graduate this year), I had my acceptance letter in October.

You will likely need to retake your PCAT though. There are often minimum requirements for each section; your verbal and reading scores could use improvement. Some schools will do conditional acceptances (i.e. you are accepted as long as you raise your PCAT scores to a minimum of x by x date). Good luck!
