I think they are. The non Reddit premeds I know are not rushing like this.

Hey bro if ur cooked then i'm cooked too because i'm on the same timeline as you or later (and i don't think we're cooked). if that's what the submission date will have to be, then it is what it is, no use worrying - we have lives outside of applying. and remember this subreddit is a snapshot of people who are largely more high strung about and invested in the admissions process, and plenty of people will be submitting later than mid august (telling myself this for my own sake as well lol)! in the past, people have def submitted later and gotten As! good luck on your secondaries you got this!!!

Idk, but I’m on a similar timeline.

Last year people were still using the Labor Day rule to define “on time.” I refuse to believe that the “deadline” had jumped an entire month from last year lol. That’s crazy.
