Summary of Experience:
07/05: I really was not even going to apply to this school, until I checked out their website randomly, and it looked so awesome!
Summary of Experience:
07/05: Their secondary had a lot of questions, but each question was more of a short answer than an essay, which I actually liked! It allowed you to talk about a bunch of different things, which I hope will help the adcoms get to know me better :)
Summary of Experience:
07/05: I really liked their secondary! I thought it was not too long, but there was adequate space to really tell a lot about yourself. I would love to go to this school so fingers crossed!!
Summary of Experience:
7/05: Filling out the secondary I was kind of freaked out, because since I am applying to Pathways there weren't any additional essays. Hopefully my primary was enough to get me an interview! (I mean this is Harvard though so I am not holding my breath)
Summary of Experience:
7/7: I was not a huge fan of Emory's secondary questions. I just felt like they were hard to answer in a unique way and did not really reveal much about me. Hopefully, though they think I was unique because since I want to do infectious diseases this school would be awesome.
Summary of Experience:
07/12: I really liked there secondary! It was a bunch of questions, but the character count on each one was only 500 characters.
