Brief Profile:
*AMCAS Complete: 07/17/2012; Originally, I wasn\'t planning on applying to MD this cycle, so I did not submit all of my transcripts to AMCAS... so when I was eventually persuaded to apply, I had to rush transcripts but they still did not arrive until 6/18 (last transcript arrival date). Hence, the early submission yet late completion date.
**\"Submitted\" dates are days I submitted secondary (not when I submitted AMCAS app). This date was more useful to me since most schools (minus UC Irvine & WashU) were originally on my primary on the day I submitted it.
EC\'s pretty cookie cutter, aside from Forensics (speech & debate) involvement. Will update more later!

Summary of Application Experience
08/20/2012 - Finally caved in and made an MDApps profile to keep better track of my application cycle. Interview at Davis was amazing, except for the trip back home, but that\'s another story. The school is, in a word, awesome. I really hope I get at LEAST waitlisted, if not accepted.. I can see myself being very happy there.
08/21/2012 - FINALLY got Drexel\'s secondary! God, this cycle is already getting to me... I picked up a call from UCLA Alumni relations office & almost had a heart attack before I realized what \"university\" she was calling from; thought for a second that it was for interview invite or something. Really need a distraction so I stop obsessing and worrying...
Summary of Experience:
SR: 7/18; SS: 7/20; SC: 8/15;
Huge delay in completion because of LOR issues (one was not signed and no letterhead, other had no letterhead?)... finally fixed. Hopefully, won\'t kill my chances here...
Oh well, it was worth a shot! I love that they don\'t screen purely for high stats, but consider EC\'s extremely important... too bad mine weren\'t up to par.
Wow! I wasn\'t expecting such an early II. The school was great, I love the staff/faculty/students there, and I really enjoyed Sacramento in general. Here\'s to hoping for good news in October... would be an amazing birthday present =)
