I havent recieved any yet but i'm trying to determine if I will have enough time to recieve all my LOR from prof. without passing the due date on secondaries. So are their due dates and if so how much time is given for completion?

Most secondaries aren't officially "due" until like November, December or even January... but it's extremely foolish to wait that long. You shouldn't have any problems as long as your letter writers can finish up in the next month or month and a half. Your goal should just be to have everything submitted well before the august MCAT people are complete (their scores are released in october, I believe).
 
Most secondaries are due two weeks after you receive them from what I've seen. That is, if they have a due date. Some will just give you the final deadline, which is like November or something. But that is just the due date on the secondary, the LORs can come in later if they must.

Those damn LOR commitees take so long. Damn them and the power they wield.
