Summary of Experience:
Added Mayo and Resubmitted Primary 7/27; Pre-Secondary Processing Fee: $100 Never received LOR request. I think they thought that I wouldn't fit in with the scene there...they were probably right. Rochester is not for me.
Summary of Experience:
Costs: Plane Ticket: $289.20 (USD) Stayed with friend in his frat: $0 Free ride from DTW to Ann Arbor by the nicest couple EVER (love Ann Arbor people!): $0 Free ride from Ann Arbor to DTW by friend: $0
Total Travel costs: $289.20 (USD) Interview Day Opinions: 3 Interviewers (2 doctors and 1 M4) very relaxed and conversational. Mostly they asked about my Primary APP but I did get a question asking about my opinion in the biggest problems in healthcare today (reform, gov\'t stuff, etc.). Overall, students seem very relaxed- have life outside of school (esp. with recorded lectures and flex-time quizzes). I loved their Interview Day, Michigan does their best to sell themselves (and they do a pretty darn good job too!). Ann Arbor is small collegetown with a lot of stuff, but LOTS of ppl...looks crowded. Gorgeous weather when I visited but apparently winter lasts 5-6 months...
EDIT: I was accepted! This is one of my top choices :)!
Summary of Experience:
2 week turnaround time. Craziest experience of my life. This is truly a dream come true. Getting the call from Dean Garcia was seriously unbelievable. <3
