Hey, I know exactly how you feel. I am in the same boat, I applied to Downstate and Stonybrook and I didn't get in. I was told that so many people apply and that they have limited seating and they usually have to turn away great candidates such as ourselves because there's just not enough space. I really can't afford a private school, but I'm so burned out with everything especially all the waiting and waiting that I'm just going to go for it and hope everything works out. I really want to just get started, i don't have the energy to wait any longer yet alone do a 2 year program when I know I could have went for the one year. Trust me I know exactly how you feel, but just try to hang in there and be strong. The list that she gave you is what I used to pick out schools, sort thru them and see what you can come up with. I even went as far as applying out of state, I got accepted to a private school in jersey and its a good program but its really expensive. So I'm in the process of figuring out what my options are, but right about now I'm really burned out and I'm so tired of having to wait and put this off.
