Summary of Application Experience
Really looking forward to traveling to new cities and visiting old favorites. Officially applied today, 6/1/2010.
Summary of Experience:
Final word: Couldn\'t sell WashU to myself. Lots of personal preference stuff. Plenty of other interviews at schools I would prefer and that are probably just as likely to give me some extra lovin\'. Great place and definitely hoping my rejection doesn\'t turn them off during the residency process!
Summary of Experience:
Annd... rejected. F. Was top choice. I understand that my research background probably wasn\'t strong enough, but they strung me on so long... Annoying.
|The Cleveland Clinic is amazing. For me, I think they have the best of everything except location. Anxiously waiting.
Such cool people =). Really liked the campus and the students and the administration. The curriculum is very old school but you can skip lectures and study on your own from syllabi, so that\'s cool.
Summary of Experience:
Waitlist... What is it about waitlists that still stings? At least WL at Harvard is a lot closer to an acceptance than at other schools.
|The interview day was pretty fun and I really enjoyed Boston. We\'ll see how this turns out in March :)
||Holy freakin\' cow. Harvy likes me! At least, enough to give an interview. Pretty nervous for this one!
Summary of Experience:
Very friendly students, very friendly admissions staff, the interviews were not too stressful but I didn\'t like how short they were--20-30 minutes with the individual interviewer and same with the panel!! Really nice area, ATL is awesome. Grady is neat and they have good residency programs which should mean good clinical training.
Summary of Experience:
Cool place, really fun students :). Has a lot in common with its sister 5-year program, but does everything to a lesser degree of commitment--i.e., some pbl, less tests, pass fail, bigger class, etc.
