You might as well apply, I would suggest you have your transcripts sent to AACOMAS asap. Having them verify your transcripts seems to take the longest chunk of time. Good luck
My interview with the proffesional health committee is next week

I think you have good chances-although applying late might set you back a bit. Why haven't you gotten your AACOMAS ready so they could review it?
PS-good schools are a matter of opinion. Some of them have dress codes, some of them are graded, some of them are more expensive, some requiring moving outof state for the 3 and 4 year rotations-some are affiliated with good rotations in state-some are affiliated with state-supported institutions, some are private. Do your research-visit the websites.

Like medic said, your chances are zero if you don't get the application in.
Honestly, I would have told the committee "yes, sure absolutely, I'll wait for you to review my application before I send it in." And then promptly put in my credit card number and sent it. Honestly, what can they tell you to change besides your personal statement? The application is a series of questions which require factual answers. Since the osteo schools do rolling admissions, earlier is always better.
I'm in a panic myself because of my committee LOR. All my secondaries are done and I've been invited for 2 interviews, but I can't seem to get the LOR done. I've asked three profs for recommendations to go to the committee and they've had a month to do it. Still nothing.
It takes a while to get everything submitted.
Have your transcripts sent out ASAP, though.
I don't believe it's too late for you. You should be able to still submit your apps. It will be hard work, but it will pay off.

Apply. I was in the same situation. Apply now. I eventually decided to apply without waiting for my August MCAT scores and I actually received a phone call from VCOM about interview. My interview is set up at the end of the month. I thought they would want my MCAT scores before they decided to interview but that was not the case. Apply now. Good luck.
FYI...for anyone who has this "Is it too late to apply" question, the answer is no. It is too late to apply the day after the deadline for each individual school, until then you still have a chance.

Apply now! Spaces fill really quick. I heard from reliable sources that classes are almost completely filled by December.
