Summary of Application Experience
Applied too late in the season. I know my science GPA is hurting me, too, despite a strong upward trend in my grades in the past year. Still waiting to hear from Einstein and Wash U. post-interview. Advice to future applicants: apply EARLY, and to a wide range of schools. It sucks to still be waiting to hear in March, with no acceptances and two waitlists, with the prospect of reapplying on the horizon. Save yourself the pain and APPLY EARLY!
