Congratulations jaxnaud (Karen)! See you in June. I am disappointed by how many people got waitlisted twice in a row. It just seems like a mystery formula to me if people have that experience. I'm really feeling for you guys and hope that this, someh...

I'm still taking prerequisites for my back-up school. Microbiology and a Biology with Genetics. I've found it challenging to find motivation to study with the decision hanging over my head. I'll drop those classes so fast my head's gonna spin if I ge...
