gaw – wow, pretty insulting comment.
Don’t mean to insult, but the field IS saturated. (shrug) OT/PT/Speech are the fields of choice for Bais Yaakov girls, and they seem to get into programs. From the outside, and knowing girls (and guys) who have done it, they aren’t difficult fields to get into.
If you could give me specific figures (for example, 70% of those who enter the program fail out before the boards, or 50% of those who want to get into a program don’t get into any program because they fail the entry exam), I’m all ears (to quote Mickey Mouse and H. Ross Perot). Until then, a 90%+ pass rate is a formality.
