Summary of Application Experience
I applied after my 2nd year, only to my local school. No luck there as my GPA wasn't high enough for early acceptance despite the nice MCAT.
I'm planning to hit all of the Canadian schools and some US schools with applications this year, as I'll be finishing my degree.
