Would it be considered "too late" to add more schools to AMCAS at this point in the cycle?

Basically my title, I am considering adding two more schools since I withdrew from three last months (for various reasons). I know I would receive the secondaries very quickly, and I would get them in within a week, but would that be pointless at this point?

No, not too late, the "new" schools will get your application within a couple of days. Good luck!

It is never too late to add schools, but please consider this resource posted by the University of Michigan that outlines their interview/acceptance rates as a function of the date of application receipt. Secondaries submitted in September have a much much much lower chance of being considered than those that were submitted earlier in the cycle. The choice is yours, but please be informed!

Wow, thanks for sharing. 3/500 interviewed for applicants submitting in September is pretty stunning.
