[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an excellent opportunity to teach him resilience. At least he has one acceptance so he is going somewhere. Maybe an attitude adjustment is needed for both of you. [/quote] I remember couple of friends who initially weren't accepted into any medical school. They kept trying. One got a master's in something medical-related. He was accepted at the UofMichigan. The other I don't recall what she did, but she got accepted into an Ivy medical school. [/quote] Jerry Greenfield, a co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, was denied from some 20 med schools out of college. He took time off, did research, and reapplied to some 20 med schools. He was rejected by every one of them - again. So, he got into an ice cream business as a co-founder of Ben & Jerry's. [/quote]
