Too Late for a Georgetown Secondary?

So I received the Georgetown secondary August 5th but have since been undecided whether I want to spend the $130 when there are probably something like 12,000 applicants and my stats are nothing spectacular (3.76 cgpa 32Q MCAT). I figured it wasn't worth it but now I am second guessing myself. Is it too late to send my secondary for Georgetown in now? What are my chances? Thanks guys!

I would be wary about filling up Gtown's secondary this late in the cycle. There's two reasons, they have already sent out more than 2 batches of rejections. Plus some of the people that have been rejected have higher stats than you. If you go to the 2012 Georgetown school of medicine thread you will be able to talk to these individuals. Recently someone with a 4.0 sGPA/3.66 cGPA and 38 on the MCAT got rejected. So, I would just advise to be a little careful when it comes to Georgetown. They tend to be extremely picky in dimensions other than stats. I personally would save the 130 bucks (extremely expensive secondary) and apply that towards another 2 schools with fees as low as $75. Good luck with everything!

I think that if they are so picky about applicants then you have a better shot. You could fit their mission/ideals in a student perfectly. The only way to know is apply. You spend $130..but for that chance of getting in..its worth it in my opinion.
