<p>Supplement Essay: I wrote about the sustainability culture at Emory and how that relates to my interest in medicine and anesthesia. </p>
<p>I have not visited the school yet; do you think it would be worth a visit over Spring Break, even though it's so close to decision time? If I get rejected, it would be a waste, and it I get accepted, I don't have any time to go until the week before we have to commit...</p>
