Unsure why I felt the need to justify any of these posts with a response, however I would hope maybe in the future some of you might give people the benefit of the doubt. Especially if you haven't met them, or maximum met them during an interview environment online lol. Feel free to send me an email - as was mentioned above it's literally on the spreadsheet - if you'd like to have a more positive discussion, and not just shit talk on an anonymous forum.
For whoever I seemed to offend by my application this year and the match outcome, I do apologize and wish you success and happiness in any of your future endeavors.
I was following and agreeing with you defending yourself until you said you have a 1000x harder. Seriously? Lol
1000x more imposter syndrome I think is what they said!
