I have not submitted my CASPA app nor have I taken the GRE yet. All this is new to me and I am learning as I go. I have GRE scheduled for next month. What do you guys think about applying at this time? or should I wait for the next period round. I would appreciate any help. Thanks and good luck to y'all. Honestly, I think waiting for the next application cycle might be in your best interest, as most schools have their deadlines coming up in early September. Unless your stats are amazing I would definitely wait! Waiting another year only gives you the opportunity to improve your overall application with additional PCE and maybe more classes to boost your GPA (if you need it). Plus you would be saving money in the unfortunate scenario that you apply to late this time around and have to end up reapplying next cycle. Better be safe than sorry!

If it makes you feel better, I didn't submit until July 4 and was offered an interview yesterday. When is your GRE scheduled and would you be able to submit soon after completing it? It takes a couple weeks after taking the GRE to get scores back. Since they have already been interviewing I'm sure the class is already filling up, but my interview isn't until late October. I think you could still potentially get an interview but the odds aren't in your favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although they're rolling admissions, you don't want to submit your scores too late (they've already sent out plenty of interview invites for July and August). Also, my gre score wasn't spectacular but I was able to interview. So I'd say it depends on your application as a whole as well (gpa, patient experience hours, extracurriculars, etc); that'll help balance the lower score...in my opinion. I hope this helps! Do you mind sharing your GRE score? I got a 294 and and was quite bummed coz my GPA is a 2.9. I applied on july 12th but becuase I am still waiting on GRE scores to be completed on the portal this week Its a waiting game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
