Should I apply right now?

[azyu22]

Is it too late to apply this late in the cycle? I know schools are pushing back their deadlines to the start of 2021 and I was still wanting to apply than regret not doing so.
But what are my chances of even getting an interview? My stats are average.. Thank you so so much!

I would apply like yesterday if I were you! Apply to schools that have similar stats, I know people that are taking their DAT this month so their applications aren’t complete yet. Although you are a little behind, it’s still doable. I would rather have applied this cycle with the chances of getting in rather than not doing so at all. I have similar stats as you, they aren’t too far off and I’ve received 3 interviews thus far.

You’re an URM though so you do have that advantage. The OP might not be.

I doubt that’s the biggest factor of receiving interviews...
