Summary of Application Experience
The application process was difficult because of glitches with the new online AMCAS form. Being an Idaho resident added to the difficulty, because there is no medical school in Idaho. The process is long and frustrating, but now that I am actually in medical school, I know it was all worth it. My advice: work closely with your pre-medical advisor, shadow doctors, and have some research experience behind you.
