Summary of Application Experience
Very interesting process, should've done more MSAR research beforehand in picking my schools, I'd definitely recommend that to anyone applying. Know the in-state/OOS ratios, curriculum innovations, schools students usually went to for undergrad that get in, that type of thing.
