Ice Girl's public thoughts.

wait-listed again.🙄

For my second medical school I got a letter more taliored in reply.

It even called me a highly competitive applicant where as the other school had me as just a generic wait list.

The issue is I graduated with my main degree in 2015 and then took a couple of years off to take care of my grandmother who was dying of cancer no longer with us and my grandfather who has Alzheimer's.

Then when my aunt moved in and I felt free to get back to my career when covid hit and I did a pivot into working as an EMT and medical assistant in the heart of COVID-19 while also volunteering as search and rescue while tutoring children that were struggling to learn due to COVID-19 shutting down schools.

You would think this is the kind of mature person with good moral character and professional experience that would maje a good advanced provider.

However many medical schools have limits when classes expire, they have to be within 5 years / 10 years each school is different.

I have just now realized that I might need to retake nearly every "required" class again due to them refusing to see my lived medical healthcare experience where I'm now and Feild training Officer that literally trains and helps license EMTs as consideration because my English 100 class was taken in 2011.

Lord knows it would be impossible for me to pass medical school if I didn't retake English 100.

What sucks is the thought that if I don't get chosen off of the wait-list I will need to cram 3-5 classes in one semester to try and plug as many of these so called issues so that the algorithm won't have a problem with me next cycle and maybe try to squeeze something in winter and summer.

I generally hate bureaucracy and this is maximum hoop jumping for bureaucracy sake.

I want to get in so I can perform higher level medical care and thus have a greater impact in people's lives thus I will comply if it comes to it

If I get in there's only gonna be relief 😮‍💨 plan B is gonna waste another year of my life retaking things I already know.

The money the time the effort I am already starting to expect plan b there is no promise of getting off either wait-list.

Nothing in my life has ever been easy so why shouldn't I get more hurdles thrown my way when I'm so close to one of my goals.
