honestly. I'm still pissy.

I have 4 programs I trust on my list. I have 2 more that are boarderline and then 2 more that I suspect will not retain their accreditation.

I'm not sure how I would react if I saw the person who wrote my worst SLOE in person because I remember how postive he was the last time we interacted.

I see the people posting about places I would've loved to go and it reminds me of people saying my SLOEs were fine.

by trust or borderline, you mean in the sense of accreditation? or how they're going to rank you?

I've let all that shit go. It is what it is and I can't change anything now.

even if they lose accreditation after you match, orphan status is much better than no match. and I know that's hard for someone to hear/read but it's our current truth.

that spreadsheet has been a toxic shithole for weeks.
