Summary of Application Experience
Dont give up... I'm at the end of my 3rd application in 4 years, and this time is promising (more interviews than ever received in past). Get AAMCs MSAR book-- very useful in finding the right school for you. The jitters go away after the first interview. Believe in yourself and know the answer to 'why you want to be a doctor' so well that you can tell your friend without skipping a beat. Don't prepare for the interview-- spend that time getting to know who you are. 3-30-06 I found out I MADE IT!!!
