You can call me stupid, its okay, I won't get upset with you.
I think I will change my side on this one now. Thank you air bud and everyone else that overapplied. Because you all cancelled programs, open spots are now everywhere. I was able to apply this morning to a backup program and easily get accepted to my first choice month. And yes, this is a top 10 program.
I know that may be a pretty sophisticated statement above to grasp, but it shows exactly why people shouldn't overapply. I'm sure people were initially rejected from the program I just got a spot in.
Rocky, I do see your point about the quick turn around. Some students may not cancel right away though, some programs do not give a short time frame to respond. I'm sure there are at least a few students right now that still have more externships confirmed than number of spots.
Finally, I was never here to complain about my own situation, I'm doing just fine.
