Summary of Application Experience
I know I'm not the best applicant in the world and am applying to some pretty tough schools. I am looking forward to the challenge and realize that I may have to apply twice or three times to get into the schools that I want. I've had a tough life and will work hard to make it through to where I want to be.
UPDATE: After having been REJECTED, appealed, and a LOT of letters from me, I have been accepted at UCSF. My DREAM. Woot!
