Hi all,
I was wondering if I could please have your 2 cents on my school list.
Just to give some background: 500 MCAT from this June, retaking 9/8. sGPA is 3.95, cGPA is 3.97. Lots of volunteer tutoring, mentoring. Also worked as a tutor. Scribed for one year. Nice LOR from professors, have DO LOR. 100 hours research. Family caretaker. Asian. From AZ.
Already applied MWU, Western U, and AT Still KCOM. I received secondaries from all 4, but I think I will wait to submit secondaries after my 9/8 test date. Midwestern and AT Still told me they will not review my app until my retake is in, so 10/13. Any other DO schools I should add? And is it a bad idea to focus on my studying for now and submit secondaries more than a month after being invited to complete them?
Also one more thing, should I add any more MD schools to my school list aside from the 3 in state ones, AZ, I already applied to: UA Tucson, UA Phoenix, Creighton? I submitted my AMCAS on July 22nd, not verified yet. I know I am very late for MD and my current MCAT too low, but still wanted to ask? Would it be a waste of money to apply to any more MD programs with my retake coming in 10/13?
Thank you for any help or advice you can provide, I really do appreciate it. Sorry for all the questions, I'm new to posting here and this applying thing.
