Other Information
I feel like I got some interviews because the programs thought we had interests in common. Lots of volunteer work, moderate amount of leadership, some work, some research, some publications. Was told I had great LoRs at an interview. No one asked me for my Step 2 score. Went on too many interviews and matched near the top of my list. Overall fun but tiring. Would have been happy at most of the programs where I interviewed.
