    Summary of Application Experience

    This is my third year applying. I took the MCAT three years ago, got a 32Q. Retook MCAT (35N), hopefully that will help. I've added something every year, but I finally realized it's my grades that are holding me back. My graduate program seems to help, I've gotten my first two interviews so far in three years...

    2/11/05 A big day in this long, long journey. First acceptance to medical school in three years of applying! I have another interview at Saint Louis University at the end of the month with a number of schools to hear from still. I beat the system! A sub-3.0 science GPA can still stay in the US. Just gotta keep trying.

    7/21/05 Georgetown here I come. The process is finally over!
