Crazier things...

OUCH!!!! THAT SUCKS!

Ditto! By the way, you have a great attitude!!!

Yea, it sucked. But I can't stew in it. I truly believe things happen for a reason, and that I'm not supposed to know why. I trust in the Lord, and His plan for me! That may sound a bit idle but that's the way I feel.

It's important for me to talk about it with my colleagues and family, Fix what needs fix'in, then move on. Life is too short to get pinned down and needlessly worry about things that I cannot control. All I know is that I have tremendous determination, and am willing to do whatever it takes, and if it's meant to be, then it will...

Like a friend of mine recently told me "Keep the Faith."

So sorry to hear about the mix up.. With your attitude and faith I know good things are in your future.. Chin up.. I will say a prayer for you and one for me.. I have been turned down by 2 schools and have 5 more out there it!! It is quite a blow to get turned down. I too have great faith the Lord will place me where and when it is time.. Good luck to you... :D

Gump,

That's terrible! I don't think I would be taking as well as you are. First alternate - you will most likely get in, but that's still a really bad deal to have it and then have it yanked from your hands. Good luck - great attitude, I'm sure good things will happen for you.

Kudos to you for showing class in your response to the mix up. You never know how that reaction might make a difference but how a person handles such situations says a lot about their character!!!!!

Gump,

Sorry to hear about the mix up. Keep your chin up. I too believe things will work out for the best for you. I found out that I did not get into a program this week. I interviewed at UAB last week and found out that I did not get accepted. I was disapointed but will move on, I still have 3 more interviews to go and I have been accepted at one school so far. I to will leave it in the lord's hands. I WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU AS WELL! KEEP THE FAITH!

Gump, you have a great attitude.

hey -

sorry to hear about the bummer.

alt list might pan out. a friend i went to school with was 80th!

the school only took 60 and she made it in.

keep smiling.

Hey guys, I appreciate your words of encouragement.

I really do want this, but on my own merit, not on some technicality.

My wife and most of my family says "you got the letter, your do what it says, because you are accepted", heck I think they want it more than me.

(they feel this way because all of them have been witness to and a part of what I've gone through just to get here).

They will come around....

Thanks again for your prayers and words of encouragement!!

Thank you for the support.

You seem like a very strong person and i am happy things worked out for you.

I too believe everything happens for a reason. I pray every night that i get accepted to a school.

I am not going to give up. If i don't get accepted to a program this year i will work on stregthening my resume and reapply next year.

I have already applied to 8 programs this year.
