Summary of Application Experience

The application process for me is not a very fun one. I worked really hard juggling between my full time job (research at UCSF)/volunteering/ and application. I applied to 30 something schools but only got 5 interviews.

The good thing is that I got an acceptance early for SUNY Downstate.
Waitlisted for UCI and UCSD.

I really thought I can get more interviews. But then again, the application process is difficult for everyone. I am not really complaining.

Rejected by UCSD...I am disappointed :-(
