<p>What am I studying now?? Tough question…check your PM.</p>
<p>my son is a jazz student at NEC and from what he says the string dept is one of the most competitive anywhere. It’s true that you will find yourself in a good place where you will grow as a musician! good luck lovely bones!</p>
<p>Don’t get down about not passing. You can always transfer or apply for graduate school. Also, everyone has different tastes. The judges judging all of the prescreenings all have a particular style they enjoy more than others, they are human after all. Since you were rejected this just means that you have a unique style and sound. Take the rejection as a complement. 
I’m very sure you will be successful.</p>
<p>Thank you so much! I have no idea I would get so much support from all of you here! :)</p>
