I am planning to take the DAT on July3rd so I know AADSAS/TMDSAS wont get the official score for 3 weeks after that. I haven't been able to focus on the applications because I want to focus all my time on the DAT's. Should I take some time off from studying and go ahead and submit my application, or wait until after I'm done with the DAT to finish the app.

Ive already informed my professors about the LOR's and they are working on them. TMDSAS opened May 2nd so I dont know if turning in the application mid july will hinder getting a potential early interview in the Texas schools (I am a TX resident and would rather get into a TX school considering lower tuition rates)
Should I submit my app mid july or go ahead and submit it now in the next week???
 
Get it done when ur LORs have been sent to aadsas, you can't submit without them(correc t me if I'm wrong).

Im sure you're not. They have to wait until they have atleast 2 letters before they can send them. I just need some time to work on my personal statement. Should I wait until after the DAT ?
 
I would get your app done. If you have letters lined up the only stuff that will take much time is entering in all your courses/grades and writing your PS. You want to have all the required stuff in by the end of this month imo. You can update your LORs and DAT scores throughout the cycle btw, even after you submit.

I agree with this person. Go ahead and submit your app as soon as you can. AADSAS will take a few weeks to process the application.
