Hey guys I applied kind of late submitted primary Aug 15, and am still working on secondaries most from sept 21-23. I have one II from one of my top choices and I was wondering if I should complete my remaining secondaries, add more programs, or just wait. I don’t have FAP so every secondary I complete is out of pocket. I’m worried that I’m too late in the cycle and my app is probably buried. Any advice is extremely appreciated.

My goal is to become a physician, not a top 20 name brand whatever.
But I do want to make sure I’m applying to schools that can support me, my education, provide adequate...
