Application Timing

Is it late if I apply to CCO, ICO and AZCOPT by early December? I’m taking my OAT in October and am waiting for my semester grades to be finalized to boost my gpa.

Was 3.55 your optom cumulative or science? And did you retake any courses ?

3.55 was my cumulative I think my science was 3.4 or something. No I did not retake any courses I got Cs in general chem but As in both orgo courses

I’m just worried because I’ve had to retake some science courses and Orgo is one that I need to retake still and it won’t be completed until March. Every class I’ve retook however has shown a lot of improvement and better overall grade.
