Brief Profile:
Graduate GPA : 3.96 (cumulative and science)
Pretty much I am a hybrid between trad/non-trad students. I have some cool experiences and I only need to shave my face about twice a week (rough average). Hopefully I get in to medical school!

Summary of Experience:
withdrew from interview invite. Looks like a great school, however with a UIC acceptance, this interview is much more deserving elsewhere. Hopefully someone nabs it!
Summary of Experience:
Absolutely fell in love with UVM. Not only were the facilities new, but the curriculum is extremely progressive and the students are awesome. I really like the fact that they start clinical training from day one. Also, starting rotations during the middle the second year is very unique. I\'m hoping to get some love from this school and experience some of that \"fresh pow\" on the slopes for myself.
OOS Waitlist 11/8. Keeping my fingers crossed for some good news!
04/22. Withdrew from OOS waitlist. This was super tough and I will most likely be looking at UVM come residency. Burlington = amazing.
Summary of Experience:
Really liked the ethics \"distinction\" aspect of attaining the M.D. here. Facilities were older, but the medical center definitely seemed like an invigorating place (lots of hustle & bustle). Seems like they see a lot of different pathology and maintain a relatively close-knit class.
Update: \"Under Consideration\" Email on 11/18. Hopefully good news eventually!
Summary of Experience:
AHH!!!! ACCEPTED 12/20/2010!! Absolutely surreal. I am still waiting for site placement, but I\'m in!!
Update 01/06/11 : Placed in CHICAGO!!!
Update 04/22/11: Withdrew. Extremely difficult decision. UIC is a phenomenal school, but with price differences washing out and prestige not a factor, this came down to where I felt I would fit best.
