Does it really only take 1-2 days if you add additional schools?

Since I haven't gotten my MCAT back I'm thinking about just submitting my primary app to a few schools and then adding some more later depending on my score. But would the turnaround time be much faster (1-2 days) as long as my AMCAS has already been verified? Someone told me this but I couldn't find any info on it in my AMCAS materials. Thanks SO much!

It's true. No re-verification needed.

Turnaround was instant when I did it. You have to re-certify/re-submit your application and pay the extra $30/school but there is no extra delay.

Yep, it takes like 2 seconds.

Definitely submit your application now if you have it ready. The only thing that takes the time is verifying the transcript, so make sure that is in as well.

Its instant. The original time hang is verification, which you don't have to redo.
