Medical Graduating one summer late - will this impact my medical school applications?

[Question]

thank you in advance for your help

I recently graduated this spring with a major and two minors. I had an incomplete in a course required for one of the minors that I completed after graduation by the deadline that was given to me in the school portal. However, admin just emailed me saying that in order to keep the second minor, I will need to graduate at the end of the summer rather than the spring semester. Would it be worth it to graduate a bit later, or would it look worse in a medical school application?

Literally does not matter--doesn't matter if you graduated in spring vs. summer, and having a second minor also will have zero impact on your med school chances.

If you did the work to get the second minor I'd probably take it.

Agree, zero impact.

I did the 6 year undergrad plan and I was fine.

It's a pre-med delusion that one has to graduate in four consecutive years.

Won't matter in the slightest.

I too spent about 6 years in undergrad due to enrollment issues. Never heard a peep about that during my medical school interviews.
