Hello, This my first post here, although I have been lurking around the forums the past few months. I have not completed/submitted the primary AMCAS app for verification for this cycle. I am also a Canadian, but I attended an American undergraduate institution. My school's pre-med adviser...

Alright, so I'm kind of in a huge dilemma right now. I am scheduled to take the MCAT next Saturday (August 20th). This is already the third time that I've changed my MCAT date (from June to July to August) and I devoted pretty much the whole summer to studying. I'm kicking myself because I feel...

Hi SDN: I have been really concerned with how significantly a late submission can impact my chances if I submitted in late July. I really was not convinced of a cohesive central theme in my PS until late in my writing process. Coupled with full-time research, a 1.5+ hour daily commute, and EMT...

This is my first time posting, so I apologize if I'm in the wrong subforum or not following proper rules. I had taken the MCAT in September 2014 with little review and unsurprisingly got a score I was not too happy about (28). I was very foolish and I thought I could do well with 3 weeks of...

Hey everyone! Thankyou for your help in advance! I will be submitting my application to a few american medical schools by Jul 17. I would be however, writing my MCAT on Spetember 10th. I'm wondering if that would be too late (and please correct me if I'm wrong) since some schools do not look...

Hey everyone, So I'm currently registered to take my MCAT on July 22nd, but I can barely score anything above a 500 on my practice tests. My advisor told me I should push back my test to August 20th so I have time to improve my score, and still apply this year,but I also don't want to apply so...

Sorry to be neurotic. It's that time of year, again. This question may be more appropriate for the DAT sub-forum, but I figured I'd cast a wider net of responses in this busier pool. I've been searching meticulously through past threads for reassurance that it's okay, and the majority of...

Hi everyone, I'm in a dilemma. I want my spring grades to count, but I have also heard that applying as early as possible would be extremely advantageous. I am on the quarter system and and will most likely have spring grades come out in late June before I can send out my transcript. I have a...

I planned a semester of studying for the MCAT. However, I ended up having very minimal time to actually study and ended up just sitting for the exam for th experience since I had already payed. I did very poorly, 494 with a CARS score (121), Bio (125), chem/phys (124), and psych (124). I have...

Hi Everyone! So I am thinking about taking my MCAT July 8th and should receive my score around a month later. How much weaker will this make my application? How bad is it to be a late applicant? I just want to make sure I have ample time to study for the MCAT before I take it instead of taking...

I just recently found out about Podiatry school and am really interested! I have already interviewed at one medical school in Illinois, but I am wondering if January is way too late to apply to the Podiatry schools in California...A change in scenery certainly would be nice. How late is too late?

Hi guys, I know that it only takes a couple of days for processing any other additional applications after you have already been verified. So I submitted my application and personal statement(PS) with only one job shadowing experience to ICO ( probably won't be attending) about a week ago just...

Hey everyone, I officially graduated last May, but needed an extra semester to finish two last classes. Unforuantely, I wasn't in good shape to take the MCAT. I'm taking it Jan 22nd. I'm hoping to still apply to some DO schools late this cycle. What I would like to know is: 1. Should I...

Hello folks, I've realized this is a terribly long post, so I'm going to condense some info at the top for those not willing to get to know the whole story. sGPA : 3.0 // oGPA : 2.95 // Worked 35hr/wk all through undergrad // transfer student // Evil courseloads // Dec. 5 DAT (first) : AcAvg...

Hi everyone, I apologize if this thread is in the incorrect sub-forum, but I am at quite a loss on where to make it. I have been complete for varying time periods at particular DO schools and have yet to hear any word of an interview invitation or rejection from all but one of them. If...

Hello! I'm thinking of applying to pain but I won't be done with my contract until October. I know of UC Davis that allows the late start of a Fellow in January, are they any others? Thanks for a great list!

I have a question... I took my OAT earlier in the semester and did not do as well as I wanted 290 but I am planning on retaking it after the 90 days are over, which is by mid January. I have a 3.5 GPA and I am an optician for about a year now with various involvement in clubs and organization as...
