Summary of Application Experience
Some schools (like LECOM) responded to my applications promptly, in fact I interviewed at LECOM-PA in early October. Other schools, like Western Univ. in Pomona CA took forever, and even misplaced my application at one time. If you have iffy scores, make sure to read all of the school's prerequesits before applying, this will help you save money otherwise wasted on primary applications. I, unfortunately, made this mistake on a few apps. Also, don't withdraw your application from schools just because you thought you had a great interview. I thought I was a shoe in for PCOM in Philly after my interview, and a recieved a rejection a month later. But don't give up either. A girl in my class at LECOM was accepted one week prior to orientation.
