UPDATE: Ok, got some advice for my essay, and it turns out itās generic, so Iām redoing it again. My counselor wasnāt here, so I could not submit a transcript form, but another problem for my college apps is that the Nov 1 deadline for some of the colleges was already due on October 3rd. So if I submit it on Friday, Iām already 23 days lateā¦ Honestly, Iām kind of panicking, but I have tomorrow off to work on college apps.
Which college was due October 3rd.
No need to panic. Thereās lots of colleges.
First thing.
Make a spreadsheet.
Each row gets a school.
Mark down the app due dates.
You donāt want to miss those.
From there on each school you can see documentation time.
After you do that, see if essays are required. If itās not you can apply. If it is, work on completing.
One step at a time.
You are letting things get in your head.
Slow down. Baby steps and have a list to work from.

Thank you I am
This year a lot of EA/priority deadlines that are typically Nov1 are Nov3 because of the weekend.
Might that be what you saw?
Remember your priorities this week: 5 SUNYs, Rutgers, Rowan, NJIT, TCNJ.
Did you get advice for your essay from vetted readers on this website? If so, thatās very good for you. Having a day off will also make things easier. No need to panic. 
Donāt forget to get the form to your GC tomorrow. 
No, itās just a rule my counselor has. Like, I need to give her a transcript 20 days before a deadline. So for Rowan and the SUNYs, I didnāt fill out a form which have deadlines early in November.
Your GC is not going to block you from going to college because of a form and an arbitrary number of days, itād look bad for her record. So get that form to the Guidance office ASAP. Colleges are used to overwhelmed counselors and accept materials submitted by high schools up to 10 or even 15 days after the studentās deadline. Youāre fine. Get YOUR apps in by the deadline. Thatās what colleges will use.

Yeah Iām not getting a response
Careful there with suggestions. If I remember correctlyLECOM limits # of students per college. (10?) All big public colleges probably already have all seats taken. LECOM apps were open in Augustā¦

I agree that Princeton is too much reach for you. You need realistic reach.

Yes, if I remember correctly Geneseo (a small school) only has a few spots.
Majority of LECOM DO linked schools are private and some religious. That is why it is hard to secure places at few linked public (who would want to pay private school tuition.) Limit is the same (or very small) for all schools big and small. So LECOM works best in case of small private. It is first come first served/get. If a student applied to LECOM in August, they may have decision in October and reserve spot in one of SUNY schools. If a student applies to LECOM in October or November, they may not get a decision until April. So all LECOM linked public (and some private) schools that the student applied to may have no LECOM DO space by April.

Wait Im confused so should I not apply?
Summary of the above:
You should apply to SUNYs, not to Princeton. Itās too late for the SUNY/Lecom partnership (that someone mentioned upthread) but it doesnāt mean you wouldnāt have a shot otherwise, thatās how most SUNY premeds get into med school.
