Summary of Application Experience
Submitted AMCAS in Sept. shortly after taking MCAT. Got MCAT result same day as I was verified and withdrew from all but U. Washington figuring I would be re-applying. Washington gave me a chance, had my interview in Feb and got #1 on the waitlist. April 23 I got an offer for acceptance and took it. I can't believe I made it with a 23Q MCAT! (It was a long day...didn't get to leave to take the test until after teaching eve class, ended up losing my ID on the way down and had to drive 3 hours back home to get my passport. didn't get to sleep till 3 am). Not sure why I got in...but I have been told in the past I come across as caring and compassionate (from all that CNA work!).
