I figure many MSTP canidates take a little longer than straight MD applicants to get their AMCAS app submitted, so I figured I'd see ask when people submitted/plan to submit.
 
I submitted the 1st week of July
 
I hope to get it in by the end of this week. That is if I feel happy with my essays. I am having trouble coming up with something original for the "why I want to do MD/PhD" one...

I agree- that was probably the hardest essay to write so far. I wrote one draft and was told by my pre-med advisor that it was ok- but couldn't really be improved. So I had to re-write it 😡 That was frustrating.

Yep, I'm a a little stuck on the why MD/PhD essay as well!! 😕 I'm realistically shooting for September.
 
I agree and sorta envied the MD-only ppl on that note. The extra essays sure took quite an extra effort. However, after spending the entire month of June editting and soliciting inputs from almost anyone willing, I completed the two extra essays. Submitted 1st wk of July and its already verified!

Good luck all!
 
I actually had a lot more trouble with the MD personal statement.
