Summary of Application Experience

Applying for combined PhD/MSTP? No
Submitted: 10/26/2009
Secondary Completed: No
Interview Invite: No
Interview Attended: No
Waitlisted: No
Accepted: No
Rejected: 11/22/2009
Summary of Experience:
Actually, I really appreciated the fact that Vanderbilt did not make you write a secondary if they were not planning to interview you.
Summary of Experience:
The secondary for Duke was a beast! Took me the longest out of most of my secondaries, plus the deadline was the earliest out of all the schools I applied to. Even though I didn\\\'t get to interview the writing process here eased it at other schools.
Summary of Experience:
Placed \"On Hold\" on 4/14 then rejected on 5/5/2010. Really surprised simply because my interviews went great, and I was really under the impressions most schools do not reject people post interview unless they are social outcasts, which I do not consider myself to be.
