Summary of Application Experience
This is my 3rd year applying (technically). I applied a lot earlier this cycle than previous years, and I think that as well as awesome LOR\'s from a medical school will help me get in. I only applied to 3 schools, but all very reputable DO schools. If I don\'t get interviews from them I will apply to another school or two before winter break.

Summary of Experience:
Specific situation. Didn\'t interview, would\'ve gotten in if I dedicated myself to their school, which I didn\'t feel comfortable with at the time because my wife is pregnant and we want to be closer to family in CO.
Summary of Experience:
Filtered me out of secondary application pool because of my sGPA under 3.00. Guess they didn\'t care to look at my improvement, the courses I took and my extracurricular activities. Glad some schools do. Not too disappointed about KCUMB.
