After the tears...
So after finally shedding a few tears about not getting into the program, and having to move out of my apartment in 3 days I had time to think. My initial response was to apply to as many professional jobs as I could. ( like 10 so far).
However... As I sent an email to a former co-worker to get the email of my previous director, I had a minute to think. I don't want to go back just yet, if there is a chance.
. I still want to finish this application cycle. I may just apply strictly DO schools, I am going to see if make a list of the ones that don't require a DO LOR. (my letter is from an MD) and apply for them this cycle. I may have a better chance with my 3.4 GPA than in Texas schools.
There is still a lot of work to do with this route.
I still need to work on my personal statement ( another thing I don't want to do)
I need to get at LEAST a 9 on all my sections (take 1000 of practice test)
My biggest challenge (another one) is going to be in 6 months when my student loans come up for payment. Since I did not get into the program, I wont be in school full-time. And throwing a couple of part-time jobs together will notdo
I think I am still going to apply to a decent paying job because I need to save up money for the deposit, applications, moving cost, and car payment.
this also will most definitely mean I will have to move, because the Texas DO school is just as hard to get into as most other Texas schools. But I will deal with that if/when I get to it.
this week is going to be a bit ruff, but I will try my best not to loose my focus on my goal.
