Summary of Application Experience
Applied last year, I was so busy with my masters thesis defense I couldn't get my application in till late october early november and I only applied to 4 schools. Unfortunately I didn't even get any interviews. So this time around I've retaken my MCAT (studied alot more, haven't recieved score yet). I also started volunteering at a hospital and I am trying to line up some shadowing (although thats proved more difficult than I thought). Also I plan on applying to many more schools (including D.O. schools). Good luck to all those applying this year (especially the non-trads)
