Today is May 15th. That’s the day that med school applicants with multiple acceptances must officially give up all but one acceptance in order to begin the winding-down of the application process. From what I understand, this day is especially stressful for lots of people torn between attending two or more good schools.
But I don’t have that problem, since I only got one acceptance. I’m not about to complain though. I still get to be a doctor, in the end, and I will say that not having to stress about making the “right” decision has left me at ease to think about things aside from med school applications. For me, the grueling, seemingly never-ending application process effectively came to an end in January. I can imagine that if I were still contemplating medical school applications at this point in time, almost a year after the application season began, I would be fully sapped of any will to live.
With that said, my thoughts and sympathies go out to anyone who has the unenviable task of deciding between Harvard, Hopkins, and Mayo today. Or whatever. You catch my drift. Best wishes.
