I have applied to 15 schools with a 3.8 cGPA 3.7 sGPA 29 MCAT
Azcom (secondary completed)
Ccom (secondary completed)
Kcom
KCUMB (secondary completed)
WesternU- pomona and NW
OSU
PCOM
LECOM (erie & bradenton) (secondary completed)
NOVA (secondary completed)
DMU (secondary completed)
ROWAN
UNECOM
WVCOM

Ive been complete at both LECOM's and NOVA for almost a month now and received an ii at LECOM bradenton. The others Ive been complete more recently. I was thinking to complete KCOM and WesternU-pomona and just sit on things and see what happens. I feel like I need to complete all of them but obviously it would be nice if I saved some money. I havent heard anything from NOVA and its been almost 4 weeks, how long before I should be worried that I wont be receiving any attention from a school? Im also a texas resident and Im already done with TMDSAS, I havent heard anything back from TCOM which is freaking me out considering Im in their med sci program. Am I a just being neurotic? Does it just feel like its a long time or are things not going well for me. Im just worried that there is some red flag in my app that im not aware of..

It's still very early. No rejection = still have a chance. You applied during a very high volume time (September) for applications and so it's going to feel like an eternity.

Best tip is to not go on SDN for a while because seeing all these II's and acceptances will make you even more neurotic. Also turn off your phone notifications for any emails. It really helps haha.

I'm in the same boat as you for LECOM though, it's taking forever there because I think they have a huge amount of applications to sift through.

If you have not received an interview yet, which seems like it, then complete all your secondaries. Do not risk anything. I applied to LECOM-B in July. I heard back for II in September. I set mine for Nov 21. Your stats are pretty much the same as mine so i think you should hear back for II but apply to a few more to be safe: Kcom and Western might be enough
