I am interested in applying D.O. this cycle but I am still awaiting my August 16th MCAT Score. I am expecting to score over 30. If I were to submit around September 20th would this be too late in the cycle to stand a chance? I don't want to waste money, but if I stand a chance I'd like to apply. Anyone with knowledge on this?

Most schools interview into April/May.

I dont think it is too late. Just keep in mind the timeline for submitting. It takes about 1 month to get your primary verified so it would be around october 20th or later then a couple of days to receive secondaries. By the time you submit secondaries and have the schools look at them it will be pushing November and by then you would be waiting for a interview spot after the winter break.

Now is not too late...Dec/Jan, yes. By then you'd be applying for a spot on a wait list.

So quit fussing and start applying!
