I got it!!!!!!!!!!

I just got the notification that I have an interview with UC Davis Vet school!!!!!!!!! Literally shaking with adrenaline, I can't think. I have to schedule it so I don't know when it is, but I'll keep you guys posted.

It's taking some time to sink in. Just now, I almost burst into tears so I'm pretty sure my body has no idea what to do with this information. I feel like screaming, crying, swearing, leaping, running, and possibly jumping over tall buildings.

I'm in the first round of interviews so my chances are good. Here's some stats from the letter:

1043 applications recieved
220 of the most competitive applicants interviewed
133 positions available

I'm getting my hopes up that this just might really be happening. I've always said that if I could get into the interview, I can get in. Now I just have to walk that talk.

WHOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

    Congratulations! That's something to be proud of, especially with those stats. My uncle became a vet through UCD.

    Ha!!! I KNEW you would get it. When you leave the interview, they'll have offered you not only a place, but a full ride scholarship and their jobs when they retire as they treble before your competency.

    Why didn't this show up on Buzz?
