Will changing my MCAT date from 8/22 to 8/5 make a huge difference as far as applications? The main reason I'm changing it is because I have to move back to school before 8/22 and I will be doing stuff at school the second I move in (training all day for a few weeks for something) and I won't have much time to review. I want to push the test back as much as I can though because I already know August is pretty late to take the test, and scores will be available in early September...any thoughts?

It won't make a huge difference, but it may make a difference.You're looking at score release at least two weeks earlier, which pushes up your entire process by two weeks. Be sure you're verified with AMCAS before the release, and turn over secondaries IMMEDIATELY. You could still have a good shot.
