Brief Profile:
Low gpa, strong leadership, average amount of clinical experience.
I never would have imagined myself teaching- life certainly takes you interesting places! In retrospect, my choice to take time off after college to do TFA was invaluable. I wasn\'t ready to apply then, but time out of college gave me perspective and helped me narrow down what I want to accomplish as a doctor. Mark it, 3/30/12- Best Day of my life- accepted to Penn State!!!

Summary of Application Experience
As a late applicant (Aug/Sept for secondary completion), this was a looooong process. Apply early, apply early, apply early.
Summary of Experience:
My best friend and TFA trench buddy lives in Kentucky two minutes from this school. Would have loved to go here. In retrospect, they are VERY in-state. With my GPA was a waste of application fee. :(

Tufts also has great commitment to diversity. I was really impressed with their online videos and what they represented about the school.
