I know we're all happy for the people with 10, 15, 15+ IIs already, but it's totally normal to be jealous or wish that was you. We have all worked SO hard to get to this point, and it kinda sucks seeing others get interviews from schools you would love to go to. So I don't know if anyone needs to hear this, but you aren't a bad person for feeling the way you do.

But that being said, please don't spend this entire year of your life constantly comparing yourself to others and making yourself miserable! There will always be people that are "ahead" of you, especially in a field that self-selects for overly neurotic, high achievers like medicine lol. So while I hope you all give yourselves grace and allow yourselves to feel whatever it is that you're feeling, please remember that there is more to life than this rat race <3
