    Summary of Application Experience

    My GPA sucked, so I applied mainly to 'lower tier' schools, with the idea that I would ultimately end up at the University of Nevada. I got an acceptance to UNSOM in mid-January. The only other place I considered was Tulane, when I was accepted in February. Ultimately decided on UNSOM for financial reasons, as well as proximity to family/friends.
