Feeling Overwhelmed with Grad School Applications

That sounds so hard :( I do wonder how other people can find the time to do all that for school and everything else. I’m sure a lot of people relate to having been ruined by COVID, including me. Some people thrive anyway and that’s good for them, but not everyone else can. No shame in taking a gap year to regain your footing and get your application ready. Everyone goes at their own pace! I have a friend who graduated and has been working a full time job in her major while she debates getting a masters or a phd etc. (she’s very indecisive haha). Meanwhile my mental health has been entirely ruined and I’m going to drop out of school this semester and see what other options I could take like an associates degree. It’s easy to get caught up in the vigor of everyone racing to be at the top, but you don’t have to be like them if it’s not for you. ❤️
