  • This premed was preparing to submit her app early, but now she can’t get her spring transcript (or committee letter) until mid-June or later. Should she submit her app without her spring grades? How late is too late to submit?

    I'm a quarter system student and this answered almost every question I had about waiting to submit. Thank you for always coming in clutch Dr. Gray!

    Can you please talk about Casper exam? I couldn't find anyone who can explain it and talk about how to prepare for it.

      i wouldn’t worry too much about it. Casper is essentially a money grab if i had to say. it’s essentially just to make sure you’re not a psychopath. as long as you can type quick and give a good detailed description about what you would do, you will be fine.

      @@dannydamanful That's so stupid, especially since most psychopaths are faking it. Seems like just another hoop we need to jump through.

    Thank you for the awesome video! I’m a huge fan of the channel/books, and would be completely lost without them. I do have a question going off of this video. I am retaking Physics 1 this Summer after initially receiving a C- in the class. The class ends June, 28th. Given that this is prerequisite, should I delay my Primary application until I receive my grade?

    I have a question about letters. Is it better to have a committee letter along with other letters or just individual letters? I did a "build-your-own post bac" at my local university, so I'm not even sure if I can get a committee letter (checking this currently). However, I've built relationships with two professors there who have both agreed to write me one. I know some school prefer it, so I'm trying to decide the best course of action. Thanks!

    I am currently working on my AMCAS application and filling out the work/activities area! I am currently employed part time and want to put that on my application but i do not have an "end date" as I am still working there so how should I fill out this area of my application? :)
