Summary of Application Experience
6/17/08 - nearly everything is ready for submission, just need to finalize my schools
6/18/08 - submitted the primaries
so i've done an absolutely horrible job of updating this thing, but in my opinion, an even worse job in general this cycle. not going to bother updating anything else, because i can pretty much assume rejection. of note, received my final CA rejection today from irvine (4/6/09), pretty bummed. however, i did really like the two schools i got to interview at. waiting to hear back from NY. i'm sure my 1st year GPA had something to do w/ how horrendously i've done this cycle.
