Arrighty... After the undergrad admissions process, I thought to myself "this is a load of crap." It seemed as if if you happened to play tuba, and Joe University needed a tuba player, you were in." That was the logic behind the process.
After applying to med school and listening to other peoples stories, I've realized that this admissions process is the exact same thing. I kinda thought that there would be a better way to judge people. I got a buddy who did pretty well on da CAT, has a solid GPA at an Ivy and he got shafted by a lot of schools. I myself got into a pretty good school, but my supposed state school, that everyone told me was a "safety" gave me the boot.
SO, note to all those who apply in the future. APPLY EVERYWHERE because there ain't a such thing as "no shot."
