Summary of Application Experience
YAY I'M GOING TO BE A DOCTOR!!! I feel very lucky to be accepted so early in the cycle as a low gpa/CA resident so I can breathe easy.
All you pre-meds out there with low gpas, don't lose hope!! You can do this. :D
My suggestions are apply early, broadly, and REALLY work on your PS and secondaries! They really, really read those! I think that's what got me through.
