Summary of Application Experience
My pre-med advisor advised me to apply early - so I did. I got everything into AMCAS by June 5, and my file was complete on June 16. I also got all my LOR's in to my pre-med department by June as well, was good as I decided to apply through TMDSAS in June, and I got my pre-med department to send these letters over. Filled out my first two secondaries yesterday - Baylor & Tulane, and working on the one for Florida State today. If you do TMDSAS, you do secondaries for UT Southwestern, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech at the same time.
MCATs - 32S - yaaaay!!! Got a 9 on VR - go figure. I was pretty happy with my MCAT score. The S surprised me - I hadn't written a real essay in about thre years.
Anyways its June 23, and I'm waiting on secondaries......twiddling thumbs here........
