Hello, I am currently prepping secondaries, finished my MCAT and have my schools list sorted out. What are some other things I can do during the month of april in order to get ahead of the application proccess? Should I be scheduling CASPER or the AAMC prep exam?

Ty!!

Need your mission fit. Service orientation (not tutoring or TA, which is usually more an academic competency unless you have been hired as a teacher)?

Do you know which schools on your list require Casper or PREview? See my post in Casper/SJT forums. Check again in two weeks since the earliest Casper dates likely are in May. I would be knowledgeable of the questions. We are doing SJT prep as part of Becoming a Student Doctor, starting in May but will likely schedule a workshop soon for those who sign up and enroll.
