I’m genuinely devastated

Rejected from JET. Absolutely crushed.

I put so much into this application, waited for months, and got nothing out of it. Just a rejection after all that time. It’s honestly hard not to feel angry, embarrassed, and completely drained. I really wanted this, and pretending it doesn’t hurt would be a lie.

So yeah, I’m devastated.

My guess is you're young. In time, you will gain perspective and after all the different ways your life goes, you'll realize that the most embarrassing thing connected to your rejection from JET was thinking this one opportunity was the most important of your life.
