Summary of Application Experience
Began application process in January 2010 for 2010 admission. Took 29JAN MCAT, finished all secondaries within 5 days of MCAT score receipt. Offered interviews at LECOM, PCOM, TUNCOM, PNWU-COM. Attended all but LECOM, as it was scheduled for 22APR--I withdrew assuming that it would automatically be an interview for a waitlist spot. SDN forums indicated that was not the case--dumb move.
Placed on waitlists at all schools--accepted waitlist at TUNCOM.
