I'm not panicking about not getting in at all, but when is right to start prepping for reapplication? I know it's still early in the cycle but I my mindset is to hope for the best while preparing for the worst, and I know many of you on here are on second cycle. I applied fairly broadly to about 18 schools, have been rejected from 4, and have 0 interviews. With all but 2 of my secondaries complete for over 4-6 weeks (8/04-8/20ish), I was wondering when is the time? Do you typically wait till November, December etc. The interview season is being scheduled already through December and every additional week, the odds fall out of favor more. I don't want to be preparing for the next cycle at the last minute. It's disheartening watching people with lower stats who were complete weeks after me already hearing back; I'm sure many of you are familiar with this.

Last question; what would should I work on if I do end up reapplying? GPA will likely be around 3.68-3.71 by then and I'll have a fresh publication. Retake the MCAT or focus on more shadowing/volunteering?
Thank You in advance
