You do not have to wait 30 days. UTMB doesn't have a policy of it. I would try to contact the office to see if you retake it soon after the deadline. I heard someone try that but do not know if it is true! Try to retake it again!
UTMB will send out a suppplement application basically asking about family info after you turn in your application! I got accepted for Fall 2018 so feel free to ask me anything!
I applied to UT Houston and the application process was easier however, they are extremely competitive as well! I head they get 1000+ applicants! As well, majority of the students they admit have a 90+ on the HESI!
I met all requirements, have a GPA of 3.74, and didn't get the email for a background check! I'm sort of just waiting until Saturday to see what happens!
I submitted my application January 14th received an interview invite February 26, interviewed March 15th and still waiting to hear back! I've heard the process is very random and doesn't really follow an order!
