Summary of Application Experience
I feel like I went through my secondaries pretty quickly. Before I started to get extremely burnt. I wanted to get my secondaries in ASAP for the best possible chance. I do think I write really well and I was able to answer the majority of the secondary questions fairly quick. I already had in mind what I wanted to talk about.
(Did not have writing section. Just put a random score.)
8/11/2014: No post-secondary notifications yet. Email has been........quiescent.
9/2/2014: Two rejections within a few hours of each other. Blegh!
9/16/2014: Finally something from a school (UVM). Small-pooled!
9/24/2014: Sitting at 3 rejections, 1 hold, and 0 interviews. C'mon I just need 1 (more would be great!)

Summary of Experience:
Did not read the requirements for this school. Four letters of rec are required (no Pre-Med committee at my school) and I am not sure I can get a fourth one anytime soon.
Summary of Experience:
August 12: Placed on hold. The email said that UA is unable to extend an interview invitation at this time but it remains under consideration. Not a flat out rejection! Hoping for the best still!
Summary of Experience:
Wow. One of my top choices and I thought I had a pretty good shot here. Goes to show you can't expect anything from the inverview season.
Summary of Experience:
Never received a rejection email. Status changed on website to "Preliminary Reject" and then two days later, the status disappeared and went back to "In Progress". Seems fishy...But I guess it isn't a rejection yet.
