Delayed "complete" status- how much does it hurt

Hello,
My pre med committee letters are not guaranteed to be submitted to amcas until "early august".

I have submitted primary and secondary apps at all my schools already.

I am seeing a lot of schools are sending II's today and I am wondering how much of an impact do you think it will make not being completed until "early august", in terms of competitiveness?

Not a problem. Med schools know which schools send out committee letters, and they know such letters get sent out relatively late in the game...some don't send theirs out until well into September. They will wait for your committee letters to arrive and proceed accordingly.

Mine weren't submitted till mid September, and I honestly don't think it made a huge difference. I got several II's in the few weeks after submission and another wave later in February-March 🙂

Complete in early August is still early overall. Not gonna cost you any interviews.
