Messed up during my HR interview and called my required salary too low, will I be able to negotiate my salary further down the process? Just wasn’t sure how much raise I’d get this year

Tell the recruiter now. That way they're interviewing you with all the correct info. "I'd like to be sure that I accurately communicated my salary requirements."

Should I shoot the recruiter an email and raise the minimum salary now, or after other rounds of interview?

Made a similar mistake recently and just told them my requirements changed due to my year end comp review coming through. Recruiter was very understanding, they know how the industry works.

Get a competing offer and that will be your negotiating tool

For those that have switched companies at Manager level or higher, how long was the hiring process at your new firm?

I was recently accepted to an Ivy League pre-med program, which has made me enormously excited. Despite this, I am now growing increasingly uncertain and afraid due to the weight of the decision. I would finish residency at 35 years of age, having passed on over $1m in earnings and in $300k of debt (although later earning $350-600k+). It scares me to think of having to provide for a family in such a situation.
