I'll go first:

So I just submitted my pharmcas application and my total is: 375 $

Then I submitted all my supplemental applications
25.00
100.00
30.00
65.00
50.00
50.00

Overall Total Damage: $695

Now I know how patients feel about their copays.
 
Wow. I was too scared to add mine up before. But since the thread is going, I added all my expenses and it's $670 😱
 
Well, if you're really in pain over these payments, I guess some perspective is in order. I don't know about you guys, but I believe I'll be in debt around 6 digits by the time I'm done with school. I guess it's not as bad though, since I'll also be making 6 digits. =D

Am I the only one who took the PCAT (>$100) and bought a bunch of PCAT prep books (>$60)?

I already finished a degree before applying. I had to take four prereqs, which I also included in the costs (~$500).

My total will be around $3000. It has been fun though to explore Buffalo, San Diego, and Baltimore (coming up). I turn it into a vacation and spend the weekend whenever I have an interview.
 
Pharmcas: $415
Supplementals: $375
Travel to/from interviews: $600
Transcripts: $90
Total: $1480 😱
