so i am applying to medical school in the upcoming rotation and I was wondering if I could get some advice on when i should try to complete the primary, ask for LOR, etc. I know I should do it as early as possible but here is my situation. My gpa is just OK right now and I am going to be taking some classes this summer that I am anticipating will bring it up more(as i have brought it up quite a bit this year). I wont get these grades till August. Also I will be doing some clinical research this summer with a professor in the medical school that I want to go to. I thought if i could get a LOR it would look pretty good. And finally I am taking the mcat on May 31st. when should i submit my primary because i know that has your gpa and mcat? is it worth it to get these extra classes on my gpa? if i submit it on june first could i send the grades i make this summer and would med schools look at them? could i get a LOR from my researcher this summer or is that too late? Or should i just submit my primary as early as possible and not worry about this?
