my biggest problem is the fact that i really want to stay in boston. as nontrads, many of us have families we have to think of in the application process. at such a trying time in my life, i dont want to have to uproot my family. our daughter is 6 and at an incredible school - i am applying in two cycles to begin fall of 2013, so that means she will be almost 9 when i (hopefully) begin medical school, therefore 13 when i graduate. there is just no way that i would move her and my husband anywhere temporarily. we both love it here and have a big support system, so i really dont see us leaving unless it was somewhere close like CT or NY (he has fam in NY). even then, the thought is devastating. that unfortunately narrows down my school choices to tufts and BU, both of which i LOVE, but both of which are very tough to get into. i would say umass as well, but it is over an hour away from us. we need to be close to the city so moving closer to it wouldnt work, and commuting would be hellacious.
i guess im just venting/freaking out a little! the thought of the competition makes me a little crazy! anyone else ever feel this way?
