    Summary of Application Experience

    These were my stats when I applied... obviously they will have changed a little bit.

    Got into KU early in the game (11/21). Didn't want to fly anywhere East of there, so I have withdrawn from nearly every other school.

    Apply early, get your stuff in on time, and just be yourself. It's not a crap-shoot, there is definitely a methodology to who gets accepted.
