Hey everyone,
Big day today, and coming up. I'm sending out my applications to certain medical schools around the country.. I could really use your prayer. Its a long shot and I've done everything by the grace of God that I can to get to this point.
Its been a long road and it is by no means over but It would be a divine miracle to get into a school this time around. I think I would be extremely discouraged if I was accepted no where. I'm not sure what I'd do other than keep moving forward, I suppose. I don't want to think about that right now though, positive thoughts and prayers!
By any chance, would anyone friendly be in or near any of these schools and willing to fellowship sometime if I do get accepted to a school? That way I could apply to the ones near people I know as well to just increase my chances of getting an interview somewhere. Here is the list of options;

So how it works is if they are interested in me, some schools ask for a secondary follow up application, after that its interviews if all goes well from there and if the interview goes well, acceptance and med school in the year 2014!
I'm a little terrified due to all the uncertainty so I'm looking for some support and prayers. I know how valuable your prayers were when I was studying for the MCAT. I was literally changed by that event and undoubtedly in my mind, because you were all supporting me in spirit so I know there is power here and I'm humbling requesting it from you all.
Thanks and God bless,
Alex
