Summary of Application Experience
Class of 2014! Yayyyyy!
I had planned to submit my primary early, but then I procrastinated my personal statement. So I didn\'t submit until August... and then one of my letter writers took a long time to finish a letter of rec for me... but the application cycle turned out alright. :) It turns out a later amcas submission is not the end of the world, contrary to popular SDN belief. Go slowpokes, go!
Summary of Experience:
Didn\'t want to attend the interview after already having received an acceptance. It was surprising to me that there was no word from them for 4 months, then an invite.
Summary of Experience:
Great progressive curriculum. Fantastic professors. According to a faculty at another school, the entire system will soon shift toward the pattern that URochester has built-- 4 years of combined coursework+clinical medicine-- with a 1-step USMLE. I\'m just not sure I would enjoy living in the Rochester climate.
Summary of Experience:
Accepted to the Alaska WWAMI program. Fantastic school. I\'m not excited about the required post-residency payback for Alaskans; I would prefer to practice somewhere warmer and less-isolated. But the prestige of UW might lure me in-- we\'ll see.
Summary of Experience:
Good program, although a little PBL-heavy. Also, the rural nature didn\'t appeal to me. Good school nonetheless, so we\'ll see what develops.
