Summary of Experience:
Bummer, but never really expected to interview here anyway as I have a lower GPA and no research experience. Was surprised to even get a secondary.
Summary of Experience:
Shocked at the rejection, thought this was a safety as I'd heard they like nontrads and high MCAT scores. Oh well, was not super high up on my list anyway.
Summary of Experience:
Wow, very disappointed and surprised about this. Received secondary on Thursday, submitted Friday, and got a rejection email Monday midday. Guessing they barely even looked at my application. Wasn't one of my top choices, but getting flat out rejected so early in the game definitely hurts the confidence.
Summary of Experience:
This school is amazing. The faculty are awesome and students are super nice and seem super happy. Great curriculum and you cannot beat the location.

Summary of Experience:
Pros: Super cheap, students are all very laid back and friendly, Dr. Jones is awesome, new curriculum seems pretty good, new hospital building opening next year. Cons: Letter (ABCDF) grading, school facilities seem somewhat old and rundown, not much break between 1st and 2nd year, Texas weather
Summary of Experience:
Wow, I did not expect to like USC as much as I did, and tried not to actually as my interview was the day after my acceptance to UCSD. But LAC+Keck hospitals are absolutely incredible, the faculty here is amazing, the Trojan alumni network is famous, great curriculum, great clinical training. Downsides are the cost and the area. LA in general is not my favorite place, but the area around the school and hospital is pretty rough.
