I've burnt out everyone! With SUNY - Stony Brook 11/18, I get 19 rejections in a row...

Absolutely fantastic!! I might even make it for the Guinness book of records -- that should save me from reapplying!

Anybody else really upset with the amount of rejections floating around. I felt like I had a really good application and I am still getting hammered. I had better scores, more research, and additional degrees, than my classmates two years ago and I am getting rejected from programs with which they all had interviews. Tough year for ortho
