Summary of Application Experience
Application AMCAS -verified 6/25
First time applying! Took a year after college first to work and get more clinical experience, study for the MCAT, and apply early. Really hoping it all pays off... I don\'t wanna wait forever and be a granny by the time I start my career!

Rejected: 08/25/2010
Summary of Experience:
This was the only school that didn\'t even ask me for a secondary - what stiff competition that was! Still, glad to not have to wait any longer than this to rule Vandy out.
Summary of Experience:
The rejection came quickly, at least. I really hope it wasn\'t my LOR\'s that did me in, because the other schools haven\'t decided on me yet!
Praying that this is a good sign - something that will help me narrow down between the schools that I do get accepted to. We shall see!
Summary of Experience:
Was so happy to get to interview here! I liked it a lot... very different from ETSU (the only other place I have interviewed at). I could most definitely see myself here as well.
