Summary of Application Experience
Well, it is a very long process and sometimes extremely confusing. I worked very hard on my AMCAS application over May and June and submitted it in mid-July before I took the MCAT. I was generally happy with my MCAT score, but a little disappointed in my VR and BS scores. My first interview was with Vandy, and their interview day was well prepared. My second interview was at UNC, and I found out I got in a month later (the same day I found out my Vandy waitlist). Anyways, good luck to others applying and who will apply in the future.
