Summary of Application Experience
Didn't get in as early as I wanted to. Partially my fault, partially due to late LORs (thanks super PI). Getting more interviews now. MD/PhD at most schools and I feel I'm qualified so I'm not really worried. My stats are in range, although below average for most schools, but I feel really good about my essays and LORs. So for those who are leaving you'll only get in because you're Black comments, please save your time. They won't be approved anyway. I made a profile to help people in this process and get USEFUL feedback. (*Hint: Keyword in ALL CAPS)
