This               article               was               published               in               my               e-zine,               Storytime               Tapestry               and               gather.com               To               really               get               the               full               impact               of               what               I               want               to               say               in               this               series               you               will               need               to               read               the               stories               in               sequence,               although               they               do               stand               out               on               their               own.

The               journey               of               discovery               is               what               I               am               focusing               on               in               this               series.
               Though               I               graduated               from               university               with               a               bachelor's               in               psychology               and               a               
               grade               point               average               of               3.58,               which               meant               that               I               had               graduated               with               honours               (cum               laude)               I               still               did               not               make               the               grade               required               for               clinical               psychology.
               For               the               clinical               psychology               programs               in               all               the               best               universities               in               North               
               America,               only               the               top               5%               of               students               need               ever               apply.

A               grade               point               average               of               4.00               and               the               dreaded               GRE               were               the               two               most               important               requirements               of               the               selection               process.
               I               had               already               missed               the               mark               for               the               grade               point               average               because               of               my               
               statistics               and               research               methods               marks.

I               had               grades               of               A               in               every               other               
               subject               in               the               program.

I               also               failed               badly               on               the               GRE,               where               I               performed               
               poorly               in               the               math               and               logic               sections               even               though               I               did               well               on               the               vocabulary,               general               knowledge,               and               specialized               psychology               sections.
               To               help               me               plot               my               career,               I               made               an               appointment               to               see               the               director               of               
               psychology               for               the               undergraduate               program               at               Concordia               University.

He               
               strongly               advised               me               to               choose               an               alternative               route               for               graduate               school.
               According               to               Dr.

Gray,               I               just               was               not               going               to               make               it               in               clinical               psychology               unless               I               chose               a               very               small               university               somewhere.

That               option               was               completely               out               of               the               question               for               me.

I               needed               to               stay               in               Montreal               and               attend               one               of               the               bigger               universities.

Being               a               single               parent               and               poor               to               boot,               I               was               not               about               to               relocate.

I               needed               the               support               system               that               I               had               right               here               in               my               own               city.
               I               therefore               decided               to               go               the               route               of               Plan               B.
               Plan               B               was               to               apply               for               the               masters               program               for               counselling               psychology               at               McGill               University               here               in               the               city.
               I               was               relieved               to               find               out               that               the               grade               point               average               was               not               as               strict,               only               a               3.00               was               needed,               and               I               had               3.58.

In               addition,               though               the               GRE               was               
               mandatory,               it               was               the               last               criterion               looked               upon               during               the               selection               process.

Volunteer               work               or               actual               work               in               the               field               was               much               more               important               for               the               selection               in               this               program.
               I               prepared               myself               well               during               my               undergraduate               studies               by               doing               volunteer               
               work.

I               knew               that               I               had               everything               necessary               to               enter               this               program               and               I               was               so               hopeful.
               I               was               elated               when               I               was               granted               the               interview.

Though               I               was               nervous,               the               
               interview               went               well.

As               far               as               I               was               concerned               the               possibility               of               being               
               accepted               to               this               program               looked               very               promising.
               Then               the               letter               came               back,               I               did               not               get               in.

I               was               shocked               and               disappointed.

I               knew               I               had               everything               it               took               for               the               program.
               Again,               Dee               was               there               at               my               side               along               with               Pat.

They               agreed               with               me               that               
               I               had               everything               it               took               for               that               program,               but               perhaps               the               other               applicants               had               more.

Where               I               had               volunteer               work,               perhaps               others               had               actual               clinical               work.

There               might               be               a               myriad               of               reasons               why               I               did               not               get               in               and               none               of               them               had               to               do               with               my               ability,               they               told               me.
               They               were               also               quick               to               get               out               the               graduate               program               booklet               and               get               me               
               on               track               to               choose               a               different               course               of               action:               Plan               C.
               I               believe               I               would               have               fallen               apart               if               it               were               not               for               Dee               and               Pat,               who               kept               
               my               morale               high.
               After               a               bit               of               exploration               we               found               a               program               for               which               I               could               apply               that               
               was               similar               to               the               counselling               psychology               program               that               I               wanted               so               badly.
               What               we               found               was               a               diploma               degree               in               family               life               education.

I               could               do               the               degree               and               reapply               the               following               year               for               counselling.

Although               I               was               not               convinced               that               I               should               re-apply               to               counselling               since               I               was               rejected               once,               they               told               me               that               I               must               reapply.

Many               people               are               refused               the               first               time               around               but               eventually               are               accepted               to               graduate               programs               after               reapplying.
               At               least               in               the               meantime,               I               had               a               program               in               Family               Life               Education.

This               
               program,               in               turn,               would               look               good               on               my               resume               when               I               reapplied               the               
               following               year.

The               university               would               know               that               I               just               did               not               curl               up               and               die.

I               was               determined               to               get               the               education               that               I               wanted.
               I               applied               for               the               Family               Life               Education               diploma               and               was               accepted.

The               first               
               term               was               a               cinch.

It               actually               was               very               easy.

My               undergraduate               degree               was               a               lot               harder               than               this               program.

So               in               the               winter               term               I               transferred               over               to               the               masters               degree               for               the               same               program.
               By               the               time               the               deadline               for               reapplying               for               the               counselling               program               came               around               again               I               was               not               sure               if               I               was               going               to               reapply.

I               now               lacked               the               confidence               needed.
               Again               Dee               and               Pat               sat               me               down               for               a               good               chat.

What               did               I               have               to               lose?

I               was               in               a               masters               program               that               I               found               was               okay               but               not               really               what               I               was               looking               for               so               what               harm               would               it               do               to               reapply               to               the               program               that               I               really               wanted?
               I               really               couldn't               disagree               with               that               logic               and               I               went               for               it.
               This               time               I               made               it.

I               was               accepted               for               the               counselling               psychology               program!
               I               asked               the               secretary               what               had               made               the               difference               this               time               as               opposed               to               
               the               last               time.

She               told               me               that               one               of               my               professors,               Dr.

Bill,               recommended               me.

It               just               so               happened               he               was               the               new               director               of               the               counselling               psychology               program               at               the               time.
               I               had               no               way               of               knowing               who               the               professor               would               be               when               I               selected               that               
               Family               Life               Education               course.

I               did               not               even               know               who               the               director               of               the               
               counselling               department               was.

There               is               no               doubt               in               my               mind               that               this               was               
               indeed               heavenly               intervention               set               in               motion               to               help               me               realize               my               dream.
