Hey everyone,
I just had a few questions about the timeline of the application process. I finished my AMCAS application in June, but I had some issues getting transcripts and it did not get completed and sent to schools until July 31 (I had taken a community college class in high school, and I was unaware that I needed that transcript, as it was listed on my university transcript). I applied to 19 schools, and managed to complete my secondaries and CASPer testing by 8/22. I have not heard much, except that I got wait-listed for an interview today (WVU). Did I miss the proverbial boat for application submission or am I more in the "on time, but not as early as I would have wanted to be camp?"
Some of my stats: I had a 511 MCAT, 3.7 GPA, 64 hours of shadowing, 600 hours of volunteering, 8 semester of research, and stand up comedy as an interesting/fun activity. I am spending this year as a full-time medical scribe.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm just super nervous about the process and the limbo between completing secondaries and hearing about interviews is stressful.
