Same here...

Comms is a cool field, I've been reading some affect theory (Massumi) as of late, and yeah... pretty darn interesting, complicated as S$%T, but interesting

Congrats! That's fantastic news! Which field?

Ditto, couldn't agree more, I'd say in my case the pubs help offset my GPA (which wasn't terrible, but neither was it an a+).

That's amazing I was just about as excite as you are now. It took me about 3 days for the news to really sink in. It's a really weird feeling so I totally hear you. And big congrats!

Sounds like a solid profile, the only thing missing is a pub or two. So if you can even get a forthcoming on your application next time, you'd still be in the running for CGS, so dont let this get you down mate. Better luck next time. BIG HUGS

Good luck Nerd_for_Life, i sincerely hope you get it!

I LOVE this donkey cart metaphor. I think from now on, this will be my standard tough i believe we should be citing Nerd_for_Life for it

Congrats mate. Nice to see a fellow Law grad get one

Congrats.
