Summary of Experience:
Rejected pre-secondary. It was the only school that did not offer me a secondary.
Summary of Experience:
I was very surprised by the school. The students here seemed very happy. I definitely had a much better time here than at UCLA. This school has moved up on my list of schools to attend should I be granted an acceptance!
Accepted here! This is my first acceptance! Very excited about this opportunity!
I declined offer here due to getting a better financial aid at UW and UCLA.
Summary of Experience:
The school is obviously amazing! It has an awesome hospital right in front of the med school. The students seemed okay. I did not particularly think they were very happy, but it could have just been the group we had for the tour. It is in an amazing location and I would be pretty excited should I be given an acceptance.
