Summary of Application Experience
Application process was a stomach-ache from beginning to end. I thought my interview went pretty well and I had a couple of good contacts on the board. I think my grades killed me. I only applied to one school because I'm getting married and my fiance has a great job in the OKC area. I'll apply all over next year. I was under the impression that my literature background would benefit me some (I did a lot of studying in Narrative Medicine). My interviewers seemed genuinely interested in my background. My extracurriculars are pretty good, but not good enough I guess.
