And Dear NStarz, please don't take this the wrong way, but it seems as though you're a bit bitter and maybe you don't want to encourage equally competitive applicants to apply this cycle.
One full day of experience and no veterinary LOR is not equally competitive.

I know this thread is supposed to be all affirmation, backrubs and unicorn rides, but it isn't out of line to suggest that someone with virtually no experience in the field has a less than adequate understanding of the work.
