Summary of Application Experience
I decided to do the early decision program due to my sub-par MCAT and GPA. I thought I had pretty good experiences going in and my interview went smoothly but it seemed they were questioning me a lot about why I went to KU? I just received a letter on the 28th of September that I was deferred from the EDP and moved to the regular program. My biggest concern is where to apply now and if I even have a chance getting into UNMC if I didn't make it already..
