To PNMs, my first year on the 'other side' of the door and I have to tell you it is rough rough rough (the cut percentage was much larger than what I ever expected it to be). We truly met so many wonderful people and to have to cut was super hard and there were some tears at our end (sappy but true). I know this is hard to hear but I wish someone had said this to me last year: The number of people going through is huge relative to the spots available, everyone is almost equally qualified, we have to deal with legacy issues and it is so hard to make choices when so many people are equal and we know they could/would make great sisters. The message is that if you get cut know that it absolutely wasn't personal (this is hard to understand when it happens now but believe me when you see the other side next year you will understand what I am trying to say). Keep the bigger picture of joining our system in the front of you mind and focus on finding likeminded people at the houses you visit. We were up super late getting it all done so I'm going to treat myself to a little nap before studying. Be kind to yourself and just keep going. If you maximize your options you will get a bid! Sorry for sounding sappy but I wanted to say something even though I'm exhausted and not thinking 100%.
