Summary of Application Experience
I took the MCAT in late August and my scores were unavailable until late September. This made my application completion dates kina late because all of the school had to wait until receipt of my MCAT scores to review my file and make any interview decisions.
Also, looking back, I now realize that I applied to too many reach schools and too many back-up schools and not enough solid, middle-of-the-road schools. My GPA wasn\'t good enough for the reach schools (I\'m guessing), and I am now left with very few schools that I would be truly happy going to. Now I\'m left hoping that I get into one or more of the very limited selection of middle-of-the-road schools that I chose. I didn\'t go into this cycle fully prepared. I wish I could do it over again. But, on the other hand. I at least have 1 decent acceptance and will therefore be going to med school this coming year. I really got lucky. Here\'s hoping for more luck!
Summary of Experience:
pre-interview waitlist? Even though interviews are technically over, I guess I\'m on a short list of applicants that have a slim change of being interviewed later in the spring. Basically a rejection...
Summary of Experience:
Wooooo!!! Last minute interview invite... interviewing on the last possible day... Ugh, post interview hold... should know mid April whether I\'m accepted or waitlisted... fingers crossed! I LOVED THIS SCHOOL!!!! Ugh, waitlisted... This is horrible news.
Summary of Experience:
Loved this school!!! First choice by far... OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!! I\'m in shock right now... I can\'t believe I\'m going here next year!!!!!
