i think i might as well go for it, grades will be in by August 16th and ive read other forums about people making it into med school that applied even later than august.

hopefully they will like me enough, i do have an awesome upwards trend grades -wise🙂

im hoping that it works out! :xf:

i still need to research schools, i def wanted to apply to LECOM-B

Most schools screen below a 2.75, etc. Touro's claim 3.0 but i was interviewed in Henderson with <2.8 last year. You should be fine, just update after summer. BTW with your stats, yes August is late and puts you at an advantage. If you submit in August, dont' expect to be verified until October. I submitted late July last year and was veririfed September 26th.

If you do wait that long, make sure you have your secondaries ready to submit the day you get them.
