How to strategically fill out apps?

[NY_Med]

I submitted to AMCAS Thursday, and have already began to receive secondaries. I am sort of at a crossroads. Is it better too fill out these secondaries asap? Or to submit to AACOMAS sooner? I have heard that schools track the turnover for secondaries so I am thinking about just waiting until the end of the month to submit to AACOMAS, and solely focusing on MD secondaries this month. Any suggestions?

The DO cycle runs later than MD so I think waiting to submit would be fine. For secondaries I would submit based on deadlines for each secondary. Remember applications are not necessarily processed in the order they are received. Just make sure each secondary response is as well edited as your personal statement. The rest is just noise.
