AMCAS timing

[missdoctor]

Does it matter at all if you have everything submitted in your application early except for your MCAT? Or does your app not get looked at until EVERYTHING is complete? Thanks!

your application has to be complete before it can be looked at at most schools.

i think she is trying ask if we can submit AMCAS without a MCAT score

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can submit your AMCAS without an MCAT score.

Your AMCAS gets verified (this is the bottleneck step that can take a long time).

Schools won't look at your AMCAS yet, because there's no MCAT score.

Whenever your MCAT score is released, it gets added to your AMCAS.

At this point, schools will look at your AMCAS.

ohh okay i see. so there's really no point me in rushing to fill out my application months before I take my MCAT.. Thanks everyone!

Just realize that it can sometimes take a month for them to verify your application. So I would try to submit it asap either way.
