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
