    Summary of Application Experience

    It's amazing to see how many qualified and fascinating people there are on the interview trail. Applying to medical school has turned out to be an eye-opening and humbling experience. My advice to future applicants: every school you apply to will be looking for applicants who stand out as individuals and who are unique in their own way. Make sure your uniqueness comes out both during your interview and wherever possible on your application.
