Summary of Application Experience
Lots of $. What I found valuable was have as many people critique PS and read a med school interview admissions book by Jeremy Fleenor (sp?)
Although I\'m still in the middle of it all, if I could do it all over again, I would make my turnout time for secondaries much shorter. They say submitting primaries early is key. I did this, but early secondary submission is key too. There seems to be a bottleneck around a certain date in late July where you either get an early interview or wait a long time to hear something.
Summary of Experience:
School looks cool. Some students were friendly, some were not. Price of housing is great, dormitory living is not so great. I\'m not sure if I\'m a fan of NYC however.
