Summary of Application Experience
So money spent so far: * 1600 Kaplan MCAT class - I really liked the online material, I thought my teacher was so so, but the class did force me to study. * $760 Primary Application Fees - Expensive, can we take out loans for this? * Lost count of the money I spent going to interviews, Taxis are so expensive.

Summary of Experience:
Withdrew after Emory acceptance. I would have like to visit but getting there would have been pretty expensive and I didn\'t want to miss more class.
Summary of Experience:
I am driving to this one. - not a big fan of the school. After they said their academics was \"not like Johns Hopkins\" I decided it probably was not the best fit for me. I want a school that tries to be good not one that just sits back and says well we aren\'t that great.
Summary of Experience:
I think my interview went well, this is a huge school. But, it has a good football team! Deferred, kinda dumb but thats okay I was not a huge fan of their 240 person class size. The tuition though looks amazing compared to Emory.
Summary of Experience:
Got my invite/secondary today! - Interviewed, I think it went well and I really like this school a lot! I got waitlisted, kind of a bummer since it was a really cool school but thats okay I think I liked Emory a little bit more.
