<p>"Should all these be completed before submitting the application? "
-Definitely not based on D’s experience…unless thing change over time and it might be different from school to school. However, the rule 2 years ago was completion before starting of school. In addition, be alert to the fact that Med. School might change requirements AFTER you apply. Despite the fact that you have applied, you still absolutely obligated to complete ALL requirements, including the new ones. That is where good pre-med advising at your UG will be very handy. D’s advisor alerted her to the fact that it indeed happened at one of the Med. Schools that D. has applied. The school added 2 more classes. Advisor also was instrumental in helping D. to change her fall resistration as she has already registered for the fall classes.</p>
