He spent so much time in his residency learning everything there was…

At the optometry office, I helped office members organize the patients’ files and to answer the phone. When the office was crowded, I…

Disappointment washed over me as I read those first few words. I had just received the last letter denying my acceptance into a dental program for 2014. It was one of the most difficult moments I have encountered.
