I have some questions about my current timeline, so here's where I'm at:
I'm currently a Junior in undergrad. I've changed majors before and now I'm on a 4 and 1/2 year track and I will be graduating in December 2015. Since I switched majors, I'm behind in some pre reqs. I will finish all my pre reqs by the end of next year, May 2015. I would like to take the MCAT in August 2015, prior to my final semester. I will start to apply to schools in Aug-Sep 2015, in hopes of starting med school by September 2016.
I've read lots of stuff advising students not to take the MCAT in August because its too late for applications and all that. After receiving my MCAT score, and if it goes well, I should have about 10 months to get accepted right? Is this timeline plausible and realistic? Should I start the application process prior to receiving my MCAT score?
