Hi there… well, you are a bit unique and that’s good you are already looking at applications and schools/ programs.
One trouble is that next years applications don’t open until June or July. You can definitely work on the resume and potentially last years essays (they usually don’t change much) but there is a chance the application may be slightly different.
My suggestion for you would be to use your free time to do the research and decide which schools you would like to apply to as well as your career plans. It will help you a lot! You can also sign up for
Applicant lab and work on various modules which will be helpful no matter which program or which year you will apply.
Your primary time you should dedicate to the GMAT or GRE and try to get the highest score you can in 3 months. Then you can start working on the applications which will be open.
