I got my associates degree in science and applied to multiple radiation programs. I got an interview for each one but got rejected from all of them. Each were very competitive and I had decent grades in my prerequisites. I plan on applying again but I have to take a gap year now since it wouldn’t be worth retaking any courses since I did every single prerequisite. I guess I just would like advice on how to stand out and I feel discouraged and feel like I’ll never get in.
