Summary of Application Experience

I have just started the application process, hope to keep this updated as I go.

Didn't finish the primary app until 9/28/08 and am now scrambling to get my transcripts in on time & secondaries filled out. Wish I would have applied sooner- I was hoping to get a manuscript ready for publication in time so that I could have a first author pub to my credit before applying. :( Oh well! I am only applying MD/PhD so I am applying to a lot of schools, on the off chance that someone has pity on me. I'm a non-trad, returning from a disastrous first attempt 13 years ago- my GPA in the last decade is a 3.9, so my GPA listed above is a bit misleading. And I have great letters of rec, too; hopefully that helps!
