    Summary of Application Experience

    Submitted AMCAS: 6/05/07 Verified: 6/15/07
    Buffalo: complete 6/26, Invitation 7/30, Interview 8/22 (first interview day of the season! Hopefully that'll work to my advantage)
    VCU: complete 7/16, Invitation 8/14, Interview 9/20

    09/16: It's getting late, but I added Vermont today. It really is a beautiful area, an excellent school, and I hear they love non-cookie-cutter applicants. Not to mention, I took a random road trip (completely unplanned route) on the way back from Buffalo, and, by complete chance, found myself at a stop sign, right in front of Vermont's main medical campus... pretty random.

    10/16: waitlisted at Buffalo (it seems like most applicants are waitlisted and then pulled off the list in May)
    10/16: Didnt receive news from VCU, so 2 more months of waiting...ick.

    02/23: Invitation to Interview at WesternCOMP on 04/10!
