OneAndOnly

I have an iPad mini and never use it. Quite a few of my classmates like the regular iPad for clinic and class. I only take my mini in when I know I won't need my actual macbook but that's rare.

Just to give everyone some insight.... You have to remember that the people that thumb through the applications have other duties and responsibilities. These are department heads, professors teaching and mentoring current graduate students, they are writing research grants to get more funding for incoming students, etc. I know that doesn't make it ANY better but that's just how it is. Professors are also handling a heavier load due to programs not being able to hire all the faculty they want to due to budget cuts. Would it be ideal to let everyone know early? Sure but it's not always feasible. I feel bad for anyone having to endure the waiting game that is graduate school acceptance. I still don't know how I didn't pull my hair out. Good luck to you all and congratulations to those that got into their preferred school!

Looks can be deceiving! I personally don't know anything about that university or program so I'm not saying anything bad about them specifically. There is a lot more that factors into a program besides their passing rates, placements, etc. Are the professors approachable? Is it the attitudes of those bashing them? Quite a few factors to consider. I'd ask those people why they specifically don't care for that program. My UG Masters program was a JOKE. Their stats looked good on paper but no one graduated on time, getting clinic time was horrible, the professors were NOT approachable and quite frankly didn't care if students succeeded or not. Best of luck to you all.
