Is it too late to submit with stats of 3.59cGPA, 3.35sGPA, and 504 MCAt (27.5 on old scale) to:

Rowan
Western Pomona
Touro
MSU
ATSU
Edward Via
Pacific Northwest

Touro CA and NY , MSU, as well Rowan might be difficult with those stats (including the OOS status). It would be even more so during this time of the cycle. However, Western, ATSU, VCOM, PNWU, and Touro-NV are fine.

MSU is 85% in state students. Plus for OOS it's like 80K a year.

Has VCOM sent you a secondary, yet? They're the only program that hasn't let me know anything. Verified back in late November.

Same GPAs, 510 MCAT.

Are you only doing the DO cycle, or are you doing MD too? Why the late verification? Did you take a late MCAT?

In a similar position to you. Applied >20 and still haven't received ~7 of my secondaries.
 
Same here applied to 20 DO schools, haven't received even secondaries from 8 of them. I wonder if this is common? I was under impression they should at least send a letter stating they are rejecting you or are busy or at least something rather than just nothing at all.
P.S. maybe they are really busy right now so they can't even reply? Not sure.

That's what I'm thinking. Can take a few weeks I guess.

Only DO, took MCAT 8/22, decided to apply a bit late -- I was originally going to put it off until next cycle. Applied to 9 schools, received secondaries from all but the VCOMs. GA resident.

how many schools did you send primaries to? Considering your numbers I would have recommended casting a wider net so you have wiggle room with at least 9-10 secondaries with schools that aren't considered "reach", that way you get possibly 4-5 interviews to attend. At this rate you might be looking at 2-3 schools giving you IIs which means you want to nail them all for a good chance at an acceptance.

I received secondaries from all of these schools within two weeks of submitting my primary, with the exception of Western Pomona. They took about a month.

Yeah I took a late MCAT, and thats why I'm late this cycle
 
Sucks huh....

Kind of a bad time too with finals.

Good luck guys!
 
Go ahead and apply, but be ware by the time you interview, the Adcoms will be much more picky, in not actually interviewing you for a spot on the wait list.
