Thanks you so much!

It took me a year (2 semesters) to get into the program. This was however before the lottery system. Most of the professors are pretty good, but you can't really expect too much because they can't cover everything, but they try their best. So you will be spending a lot of time reading and learning on your own, but that pretty much goes for a lot of different places. I used to work pretty close to full time my first year, but I quit my job last year so that I can focus on school. I would suggest maybe just working part time. For the first year you're at school about three days a week and at clinical maybe two or so.
