Early Application Question

I am taking my MCAT on June 5. I would like to know what the best route is for getting secondaries from schools as early as possible. Should I:

1. Apply to my whole list of schools based on practice test scores the first day AMCAS opens?

or

2. Apply to one school to get my AMCAS verified and then update with more schools after receiving my score around July 5-10?

My primary concern is a delay in getting secondaries since I would like to be complete for at least some schools by mid-July.

Thank you!

Once you apply to the school and they recieve the app, you get the secondary pretty instantaneously.

Don't waste $ and become a re-applicant to all those schools (if the MCAT fails your expectations).

Route 2 is a winner .

But seriously save the $$ and only apply to schools within your GPA/MCAT range once you know your score

Good luck!
