I'm holding back tears at work as I type this. Thank you Management, Naille, Pinny, Sweetness, Dakangel, BeanTree and the entire SDN family for being sooo supportive😍 I'm filled with gratitude and warmth knowing that people like you that don't even know me but through a computer screen care enough to encourage and uplift me at this trying time. My spirit is strong and truly feels led to pursue medicine, but my flesh is soo weak. No, I'm not 60 or 70 (lol
), but at the same time I do not want to put the rest of my life on hold to try to continue to pursue this dream. I have been through the MCAT too many times and two complete application cycles, three total. Is that a sign to end this pursuit? Every time I think about starting all over, I cry and ask the Lord for guidance. I continue to hear 'Trust Me', but it's soo hard:cry:. Any who, I won't bore you all with my sob story anymore. God willing, I will continue this race, no matter how daunting, long, or bleek it may seem. I wish you all nothing but the best and I will continue to post and root for you all! Thank you again🙂

Nothing you have done is wasted, it all contributes to who you are and your character. I wouldn't count yourself out there is next year to apply, you can call and ask for assistance about what exactly your weaknesses are.
My advice would be the regular don't give up spiel...etc. , but also don't resign yourself to settling there is so much you can achieve when you try your best. So put your best foot forward and I don't think you can go wrong from there.
