Summary of Application Experience

6/24/07
finally submitted. i feel mildly ill.

7/9/07
so far, i've received secondaries from columbia, gwu, mcw, cornell, pritzker, msu, and jefferson. however, just looking at them makes me want to strangle myself. so.. yeah, i haven't done any yet.

8/12/07
yesterday i got rejected from wayne state pre-secondary. it feels kind of like getting stood up on a blind date-- haha. i also have about 600 secondaries sitting in my inbox. ehhh. but i got a job doing research at mt. sinai! hello, nyc!

8/22/07
my rec letter file is finally complete (yargh), so i should be complete at a couple of schools soon. i've submitted secondaries to: columbia, gw, mcw, cornell, pritzker, msu, jefferson, aecom, umich, osu, feinberg, loyola, tulane.

got invited for an interview at wayne state this week! also rejected from gwu on the same day. weird. funny story about wayne state. they rejected me back in august, so i called to find out why, and somehow ended up on a phone interview/call thing with the dean. i expressed my interest in wayne state and asked how to improve my application, he basically told me my bcpm ain't too hot, but said he'd send me a secondary. i was floored. anyway, sent in the secondary, and got invited for an interview. seriously, whaaaaat?

oh- on hold at umich & loyola. maybe i should send status updates to schools. they don't know that i am doing research this year.

1/14/08
still haven't sent updates. why am i so useless? rejected from iowa today. wayne interview in two days. super nervous.
