> expressing... mild regret that one might be out of touch with the needs of the majority of nz society. but... we can all express that regret. interviewers and interviewees on the same side: it isn't out fault.
and that is what empathy means.
of course.
interpersonal skills aka: culture and values. not learnable. innate. according to ACER.
i have to sit the UMAT in order to apply to medicine. i don't see an option of writing a 5,000 word essay or a 10,000 word essay or a 50,000 word thesis on how such things as the UMAT contribute towards the failure / inadequacy of the medical system.
sucking it up...
i feel sad.
and dead. a little bit dead inside.
i didn't do GRE. didn't send them my money. decided it wasn't worth studying for it. the artificial test that it was. decided i didn't want to learn to think like a rich white american. there were a couple institutions in the top 50 that didn't require GRE...but i have to sit the UMAT now.
i feel... a lot dead inside, honestly.
