Summary of Application Experience
I didn\\\'t apply to very many schools, figuring that I\\\'d only apply to programs that I would really love to attend. This cut down on the number of apps I filled out and fees I paid etc. I hope it doesn\\\'t backfire and put me in the same spot applying again next year. We\\\'ll see.
UF disqualified my application (after taking my $$ for an additional initial application fee) because I took the MCAT on May 31, 2007 rather than in August 2007... not cool. Every other school accepted all scores from 2007 and some from 2006. Lame.

Submitted: Yes
Secondary Completed: No
Interview Invite: No
Interview Attended: No
Waitlisted: No
Accepted: No
Rejected: No
Summary of Experience:
Even though they extend the secondary app to everyone, I at least wanted an acknowledgement from the school that they would look at my application before sending them my $$... so I decided not to finish the secondary.
Summary of Experience:
How is it possible that my own alma mater won\'t accept my english credits for medical school? (The SAME credits THEY accepted for my undergrad...) Absolutely ridiculous. I\'m not going back to a community college to take one english class just for the U. Forget it. Didn\'t finish the secondary.
