I have a question. i'm taking the august mcat. just finished my aaocomas application. However, i'm doing 2 more extracurriculars (joining a club, going to a pathologist office, maybe shadowing a second DO ) this summer. Should i wait till i do that to write it down and then submit my application? thanks all
 
My personal opinion is NO you should not wait. the sooner you get info in the more likely the school is to know that you are serious

Should you wait? Absolutely not. Send in your app now and list all your new stuff on your secondary apps
