7 for me. I figured out that with the transcript fees, GRE fees, VMCAS fees, and application fees it's going to run me $906!!! Anyone wanna buy a kidney?
 
i dont know if id apply to more than 8ish....the president of my prevet group met a girl last year during interviews that had applied to 10---she only got 3-4 interviews. i have heard that once you start getting close to 10 & above the schools dont like that. i dont really know how accurate this is.....
 
davis for sure - if vmcas will cooperate in the coming weeks. if they don't work out the site's traffic i may say screw 'em and apply to tufts by nov. 1st. seriously, what kind of "service" is this if it isn't actually serving the people who are forced to use it as their only means of applying?
