If You Call Out Loud
Will It Get Inside
Through The Heart Of Your Surrender
To Your Alibis
And You Can Say The Words
Like You Understand
But The Power's In Believing

So Give Yourself
A Chance * 'Cause You Can
Climb The Highest Mountain
Swim The Deepest Sea, Hee
All You
Need Is The Will To Wart It
And Uhh, Little Self-Esteem



So Keep The Faith
Don't Let Nobody Turn You 'Round
You Gotta Know When It's Good To Go
To Get Your Dreams
Up Off The Ground

Keep The Faith, Baby, Yea
Because It's Just
A Matter Of Time
Before Your Confidence Will Win Out
Believe In Yourself
No Matter What It's Gon' Take
You Can Be A Winner
But You Got
To Keep The Faith

...Gon' Keep It Brother
You Got It * And When You Think Of Trust
Does It Lead You Home
To A Place That You Only Dream Of
When You're All Alone
And You Can Go
By Feel 'Stead Of Circumstance
But The Power's In Beliving
So Give Yourself A Chance


I Know That You Can Sail Across The Water
Float Across The Sky, High
Any Road That You Take
Will Get You There
If You Only Try

So Keep The Faith, Ow

Don't Let Nobody Take You Down,
Brother
Just Keep Your Eyes On The Prize And Your Feet
Flat On The Ground

Keep The Faith, Baby, Yea

Because It's Just A Matter Of Time
Before Your Confidence Will Win Out *
I Told My Brother How To Do The Thing Right
Lift Up Your Head And Show The World You Got Pride
Go For What You Want
Don't Let 'Em Get In Your Way
You Can Be A Winner

But You Got To Keep The Faith.

Guys, me too, silent in the past week execept for one rejection which I can not remember from where.

I am getting anxious now, and suspect maybe I should have applied more programs. sad

Now I am adding more programs. Just to waste more dollars.

  #12

Silence for me. I guess I just suck big time. Guruchu or not. No one can help me now, I guess. I just am not worthy even of a rejection letter.

Everyday I logon to one of the various forums, and hear about 30 different views on "how the match is going." Some say "Wait til Nov 1," the MPSE thing gets sent, but it's still a very nerve-racking feeling especially since this MPSE doesn't have a clear-cut meaning ("replaced the deans letter").... Ugh.

I'm devastated, particularly because I thought my application was MUCH better this year than last. I guess scores is all that counts. Because the rest of my CV shines, and I'm really not saying that to scare anyone. I have absolutely crappy scores, even multiple attempts, but I'm actually pretty good medically in other aspects. I have a poster presentation at a major medical convention this year (where most people are denied), I'm an author of a book, and have various other publications.

But I guess scores matter here in the US. I AM from the US, and I never thought I'd be so kicked in the stomach by the medical community. I was so stupid and thought they'd think it's great that I studied in a foreign language. I thought they'd put a huge checkmark next to my name for "all-around" education. I'm not green behind the ears.

How wrong I was.

I know I won't get an application. Hippocrates (the only ONE i'd ever believe in as a god) would be proud of me, too bad no one else does.

What do you think of Dr lecter 's proposal Spebeeto.If I were to look at his avataar and then pass my judgement on this proposal i would say its a horrifying,mortifying,stupefying and edifying proposal.

Ease the pain or tease the pain,i dont know;dont lease it for sure
