Hi @KarlyMarlyMD!

I am by no means an expert (first time applicant, undergrad was OOS so my advising as far as TMDSAS goes was minimal), so hopefully others weigh in, too. I believe that with a pending MCAT score, they will wait for your August score to come in before reviewing your file. I'm not sure if at that point you go to the top of the review pile (or close to it) because your TMDSAS submission date was 6/30 or if your app is considered incomplete until that score comes in and you get reviewed with the other people complete in September (I'm assuming the MCAT scores are going back to a 1 month turnaround by then).

If you're in a formal program right now, maybe they could offer you some advise. It seems to me that if your app won't be considered until the August score comes in, you would be better off taking your time with the PS and allowing yourself a few more weeks with it, since it shouldn't make a difference if your app is submitted but waiting for a score anyway. But if they tell you that you will get reviewed sooner than that, then 6/30 sounds like a good plan.
