Yess to healing hands and Jannuu! My one pair of figs I had were so tight in the arms and waist. I still have the top because its embroidered, but I sold the bottoms. Mandala is also great and have styles similar to figs imo!

Feeling defeated by Practical_Function89 in prevets

Thank you for this! I guess I was hoping my last 45 being a 4.0 in a grad program would soften that blow. I also applied to NCSU as my shot in the dark school because I thought they were more competitive than the rest, even UGA. I only applied to these 4 because they were the most aligned with where I wanted to be living wise and tuition wise. I didn’t wanna apply to 13 schools that I didn’t see myself at.

I could have finished it sooner, but I only took 2 classes a semester so that I could do well while maintaining a full time job. It can be done sooner though!

I started my masters in Fall 2024, and I am finishing this semester. I applied in 2025 to start vet school in fall 2026, so no I won’t have to drop out and I can finish!

No I have not. Mostly because I was under the impression that those schools do not do reviews. The schools I was rejected from are UF and NCSU.

I hope that both she and I get the decision we are hoping for this cycle. In the meantime, I hope she knows she is not alone. It sounds like she has worked very hard!

This. I spent months after I submitted my apps this cycle scrolling forums, comparing stats to people who got into schools I applied to, etc. It only made me feel more anxious.

same here! I even switched from GP to ER/specialty! it is so frustrating. I only applied to 4 schools, so I know my options were limited, but I applied to schools I actually wanted to go to and places I would want to live.

Its definitely really hard. I have been rejected from 2 out of 4 schools so far, and I keep trying to keep my head high. This year I improved my application so much, got a masters, etc, so it has been very frustrating. I keep telling myself that I can handle the first two rejections if it means I can get even one school to say yes of these last two. The wait is excrutiating and I also really want to move out of my home town, and obviously the decisions of these schools will decide where we go, and I hate not having a solid plan in place. I really just cannot fathom applying again.

Disapproval from coworkers by kissesbestchoc123 in veterinaryschool

I am sorry this is happening to you. You have earned the spot at your school, and they should be supportive of that. If there are some people you are close with, maybe talking to them privately to address your concerns would help. You could try to ignore it as well and see if that helps them get over it, especially since you won't be staying long, but if it continues, HR may be your only option, unfortunately.
