Hello everyone,
I am just finishing up my primaries and preparing for secondaries. I realize the schools all admit on a rolling basis, but I would just like to get a feel for what that entails this time of year. For example, if I were to get my secondaries and LOR, etc. turned in within the next month, what percentage of spots do you think will already be filled? Thanks.

If your talking about being complete by the end of september, then I would estimate 5-10% of the class to be filled, at the most. You will however be behind (not far behind though, just a little) as far as pecking order for interview invites.

I think most spots will still be open then.
