Brief Profile:
The biggest thing I learned during this application is apply smarter, not to more schools. I applied to so many schools that i stood no chance at because of various things (HBC, Religious schools, Extremely un-OOS friendly, etc).. Out of the 6 interviews I received, I could have predicted 4 of them, including my only acceptance at this point. Save your money, go with your gut. Also, I\'d have to say the only way to be successful in a situation like mine is to have a strong support system and pick the right people to take advice from. Everyone is willing to give you advice, but not everyone knows what they are talking about or cares what happens to you in the end. Regardless, I\'m extremely thrilled about the outcome of the cycle and cannot wait to start medical school in the fall!

Summary of Experience:
Never completed secondary, received letter and extended secondary deadline because I met one of their six criteria... Not worth the essays
Summary of Experience:
Forgot I applied here, really shocked at late interview invite, with so few spots in the class and great experience at USF, withdrawing.
Summary of Experience:
Would have gone if this came sooner, after Drexel acceptance it would be a waste. Area Temple is in just isn\'t for me and my family.
