Hey guys! I take my mcat on aug 24th. I plan on finishing up secondaries within the next two weeks. If I get a 500+ on my mcat, will I still have a shot of getting interviews. My primary was submitted four weeks ago. My dream is to become a DO

You're definitely not late! Now focus on the mcat and don't spend time on sdn.

It depends on your GPA and your MCAT OP. If your GPA is <3.2 and MCAT is < 502, then this may be a tad late. However, if you are above one of those metrics then you should be okay.
