Summary of Application Experience

- I took all my science pre-reqs post-bac while in the military. Many of them were done online.
- Applying and interviewing is expensive ... choose your schools wisely (I had to pay for this myself)
- I didn't take the Kaplan course (I just bought a Kaplan book) My MCAT scores would have been better if I had.
- Don't read too much into interviews, just honestly answer the questions. Some interviewers play bad cop to to try to get you to react ... don't let them.
- There are no wrong answers to most interview questions ... just defend the positions you have (unless you are a Kevorkian type)
