Congrats
@catie_jane!
Given your background, like being a college valedictorian and all the rest, you've handled yourself with class and graciousness throughout a very trying process.....a process trying enough to lead to this thread. You never showed any bitterness nor did you ever lose (at least outwardly) your positive and collaborative spirit. Very happy for you, and obviously a bunch of others participants here are as well.
I'd be really interested in you sharing your journey this past year applying to med school in another month or two when most of the smoke of this cycle has cleared. Like did you start out pretty confident, expecting a slew of IIs and at least a handful of acceptances, or did you expect the process to be as grueling and unforgiving as you no doubt must have occasionally felt it was in the last few preceding months?
For now, though, congratulations. Must be an enormous relief.
