Summary of Application Experience
The past few months have been an absolute whirlwind for me - being able to attend the amount of interviews that I did was a completely unexpected blessing (albeit a tiring one)! Whatever happens, I know I gave my all in undergrad doing what I love, and I know I'll inevitably end up where I'm supposed to be...I hope that whoever is following my adventures and misadventures is inspired to do the same! :)
P.S. It\'s totally acceptable to take pictures on tours.
