So I decided to take a year off before attending medical school. I am a senior now and I plan on applying as early as possible which I think June for the AMCAS application. Now once I send that in, when can I expect secondaries? Also would it be by snail mail or email? The thing is I want to travel abroad to China and do some volunteer work or do research and I am afraid that I'll get secondaries and such when I'm out of the country. So would I get secondaries/interviews around June-August/September?
