how late will i be applying if i submit in the next week or so? i'm just having trouble figuring out which schools to apply to which is why it's taking me so long (the app's done otherwise)

also i probably won't have my LOR from a DO until september 🙁 should i try to get another one instead? or is a late LOR not a biggie?

You shouldn't have a problem at all. Also your LOR won't be needed until your secondary. If you haven't submitted it might be a bit before you're verified and sent to schools. Plus, some schools give out pre-secondary interviews. Those schools don't have interviews until september. That being said you would have until the interview to get your LOR in. In all other cases turning in your secondary and LOR's in September will not be a problem.

I applied at the end of July last year... advice? Submit ASAP.. the verification will take at least 4 weeks at this point. Best of luck!
