Summary of Application Experience
This is definately a stressfull process. It didn\'t help that AMCAS screwed up the processing of my application, which held me back quite a bit (I wasn\'t complete until December). I think this may have definately messed up my chances at some places, but i did get a full refund for my primaries!
All in all, I\'m happy the way things turned out. This just goes to show that killer numbers aren\'t everything. Good ECs, a good CV, good letters of rec, and an amazing personal statement goes a long way. I did well on every one of my interviews for allopathic = 2 out right acceptances, and 3 waitlists. The same for osteopathic 2 interviews = 2 acceptances.
