Summary of Application Experience
I got all my applications in early, along with my husband who's also applying. I think that was our greatest strength since my undergrad GPA isn't so hot. Being a nontraditional student really made interviewing easier. I've already interviewed for lots of jobs so I've had plenty of practice in that arena. Interviewing turned out to be lots of fun, but really exhausting. I had no idea how tiring it would be to travel so much.
