Hey everyone,

I started working on my application mid July, I already have all my transcripts and letter of recommendations in. I also finished my first draft of my personal statement and I answered all the supplementary questions. So I'd say I got through the application pretty quickly. When would you say is the best time for me to apply and submit my application? I was planning on spending all of August perfecting my write ups. I don't wanna rush it, but I also don't want to submit too late.

How long are you all planning to spend on your application?

Thanks

Earliest you have everything done the better. The longer you wait, the more spots will fill up.
