So I am waiting on my 2nd MCAT score to come out on 6/19. I want to get verified ASAP but don't want to throw all the schools on the list until I know my score and I hear it costs extra to add schools if you don't do it all at once. My question is whether the AACOMAS application can be submitted without checking ANY schools? Or do I just have to bite the bullet and apply to 1 now and wait for the others later?

Wouldn't hurt to try...worst possible outcome is you're solely responsible for the servera crashing and ruining the application cycle for all of us. J/k, it will probably remind you that you haven't chosen any schools. I'm pretty sure you need to select at least one.

If you don't mind me asking, what is your first MCAT? I'm assuming it might be low, otherwise you probably wouldn't be focused on waiting until the 2nd score comes out to submit.

You can't submit without any schools checked - otherwise your application would be free. They charge based on the number of schools you apply to.

Apply to a school that you consider to be near the bottom of your list. Don't toss an application at a random school you would never attend (as many SDNers do) because that just slows down their admissions department for those who want to attend there.
