Summary of Application Experience
This is my first application cycle. I intended on getting an early start, but typical of all procrastinators, I didn't really get down to it until September.
I am hopeful that I'll get into Dalhousie as I'm a Nova Scotian resident, however I thought I'd give a few ontario schools a shot. I have continued to take a full course load at Dalhousie and if I have to apply again in the future, I think I'll have a better chance at both in province and out of province schools.
