Summary of Application Experience
My top choice for several reasons. See for yourself! Don't be discouraged by low MCAT scores, but try to bring them up your second time around. I think this shows tremendous resolve. My VR score went up 4 pts, how, by reading philosophy (Plato, Aristotle). My interviews at this school were great, so definitely practice before hand. Specifically, make sure you know the difference between civilian and military medicine and why you prefer the latter.
