    Summary of Application Experience

    5/23/2008: MCAT. Thought it was hard. Really, who doesn\'t?
    Month later: Scores back. I\'m quite happy.

    7/16/2008: Submitted AMCAS. Later than I was hoping. Start it early.

    9/13/2008: Last week I finished all the secondaries I had available. (Still waiting for the shoutout from UCSF and Oregon - hopefully). I\'m in Madrid, so I\'ll be putting off all interviews until January. Wise? Perhaps not, but it\'ll be ok.

    9/14/2008: First interview invite!! USC

    11/04/2008: Marked complete at Oregon AND received the e-mail from mom that the Iove from Loma Linda (dated 10/21) had arrived at my house.

    11/10/2008: Invited to Interview at NYU.

    12/8/2008: Rejected at Columbia. It\'s kind of a relief, the waiting I think is much worse - if only the rest of them would hurry up and make decisions.

    1/16/2008: My first acceptance at Loma Linda!! Yay!!

    Eventually I was also accepted at Vermont and off the waitlist at Cornell. I picked Loma Linda. It\'s going great.
