    11/27/04
    started thinking about masters programs. yep, dispair and fear has taken over the full fledge confidence I had this summer.

    11/24/04
    Shadowed a doctor. He said keep hope alive.

    10/18/04
    Started recieving correspondences from schools, letters of rejection.

    10/11/04
    Still waiting for a response. Nada. Waiting is a good test for patience.

    8/24/04
    Finally got my recommendation. I'll save it for just in case I get waitlisted! Now, I'm waiting for my criminal report for Puerto Rico Schools!! That takes a month to recieve, if not more! I'm thinking about applying to D.O. schools.

    8/18/04
    Still waiting for 1 sci. recommendation. Thankfully I sent out my material early August. Note of advice: Ask for letters months in advance, despite how early.

    8/5/04
    I was waiting for one more recommendation from a science professor, which kept me back :( I already had my pre-med committee leter, so I sent in my recommendations w/out the one science letter. I'll send it later when I receive it. Let the mass rejections begin!

    7/22/04
    Damn! secondaries are expensive! Started mailing out a huge batch of secondaries. I have not been rejected yet, so pay no attention to the rejection put by default.

    7/12/04
    I recieved e-mails of secondaries from various schools at once. I just got back from Philadelphia, after visiting three schools (Drexel,Temple, Jefferson College. I spoke to medical students from each school to get an idea of what to expect from their institution. In addition, I visited the two schools in D.C. (George Washington and Howard). Visiting the schools was a great expereince.

    6/22/04
    My AMCAS application was just processed. Now, just waiting for secondaries to come.

    6/10/04
    I just turned in the AAMC application as a reapplicant. June 10th, 2004. Still waiting for them to approve my transcripts. I'm currently asking for recommendations from professors.
