Summary of Application Experience
I didnt include any of the UC's I applied to b/c most were pre-secondary rejection and I really want to leave Cali.
I'm also pretty late in this cycle..most of my completions are around mid-sept.
My 'reaches' will be completed late-sept or early-oct as I saved the secondaries for last.
