    Summary of Application Experience

    Taking the August 2006 MCATS... practive exam scores aren't that great (Verbal-6, Bio-11, Physical-9); Unsure about whether scores like these will get me into a school. Debating whether to apply for Fall 2007 or to retake the MCATs in Jan (the new computerized ones) and got full-out is my scores improve.

    Strong background in research... not so sure school are interested or disinterested in that.

    AMCAS personal statment is AWESOME! Waiting for AMCAS to verify transcripts.

    Already received secondary applications from several schools (they just want their $$$$).

    Rank of schools: 1)Albany Medical 2)GW 3)Georgetown 4)Any school in NYC. The rest I picked because they accepted non-traditional students.
