    Summary of Application Experience

    Advice:
    1) GPA is the bottom line, period! Make sure your GPA is high enough to be competitive, even if it means taking the easier courses or less science credits.
    2) Recommendations are undervalued, but make sure your recommendations, especially pre-med committee cover letters are superb before applying.
