Summary of Application Experience

Background:
First application cycle. Traditional applicant (end of junior year) and non-URM. BU isn't exactly a walk in the park in terms of getting good grades. I worked really hard to get my GPA to where it is today. Went from around a 3.1 Freshman year, to a 3.7 Sophomore, and a 3.75 Junior. I am documenting my application experience in great detail on this site so future applicants/re-applicants from BU have a good basis to go from.

School Count:
20 MD Schools
6 DO Schools
