<p>If the school doesn’t take submission dates into acct, then I guess it doesn’t matter. However, there may be some schools that do.</p>
<p>That said, some of these “late submitters” are going to get caught empty-handed if they carry that into grad and med school applications. </p>
<p>H’s niece has come up empty-handed after 3 cycles of med school applications. I was surprised since she has good stats…I stopped being surprised when I found out that each year she applied very close to the deadline. She didn’t learn her lesson after the first go-round of failures…nor did she learn after the second and third application years.</p>
