    Summary of Application Experience

    All I can say is RANDOM.

    Not that it matters anymore, because I just got into UCSF, my dream school!

    3/21: Accepted at UCSF!
    3/20: Waitlisted at Yale, likely withdrawing application
    3/7: Accepted at Cornell

    I submitted my AMCAS in late August (verified early September), and finished all of the secondaries between mid-September and mid-December, depending on the date they came in.

    Still deciding between UCSF and Cornell until I get my financial aid package and can visit both Accepted Students Weekends (first and second weekends in May). Leaning heavily towards UCSF, which I'm sure is obvious. =)
