Summary of Application Experience
You have to hound Howard if you really want your application to get reviewed...very disorganized
Canadian schools are all about the numbers
Apply early...schools that want you may repply surprisingly fast i.e. witin 2 weeks post interview
Not all schools are rolling, take that into account when planning interviews
Post interview is not a time to be passive, let then know you still exist
