Summary of Application Experience
I applied as early as possible, and I believe that this helped tremendously. Since my grades and MCAT scores were marginal, I relied on very strong letters of recommendation. I ended up withdrawing from Georgetown (after interviewing), South Alabama (before interviewing), and Colorado (before submitting secondary) because I had already been accepted to my top choice school.
