Hey folks, I wanted to ask you guys what your take is on sending secondaries right now, so late in the process, to the following three schools:

UPenn
Minnesota
ASDOH

I submitted AADSAS in June and have thus far had a handful of interviews at some other schools (Columbia, USC, Mich, Louisville, UB, NYU). I didn't respond swiftly to the three schools' prompts to send in secondaries (mostly because they are on the long side). Low GPA (sci > overall but both still below average), good DAT (23/22/22). I was wondering if any of you thought it would be worth it to send in the secondaries and fish out $50+60+75 = $185 at this point. All these schools have already conducted a good number of interviews during the past couple months.

To submit or not to submit?
 
My gut tells me that if the rest of your app is good, and with those numbers, you have a good shot at at least a couple of the ones you interviewed at. If it were me, I would keep my money unless for some reason I really wanted to go to one of those 3 specifically.
