  1. This endless waiting game is starting to affect my health. I wish I would get the results soon, even rejections, so that I can move on with my life.

  2. Feeling depressed. Although I've not been rejected from anywhere yet, I don't have any high hopes either.

      Thanks, DeafAudi, jjduval & sarab! I feel so alone while playing this seemingly endless waiting game. Gradcafe helps relieve some of the pressure.

      Easier said than done, CorruptedInnocence!

  3. Riding on a roller coaster of emotions. One minute I'm up and optimistic. The next, down I go. Trying not to think too much about it as a sense of panic creeps in.

  4. One of my recommenders did the same thing. Would that ruin my chances of getting admitted?
  5. Thank you so much, fuzzylogician! I am done with my writing sample. Now I'm just going to keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.
  6. I am international applicant preparing to apply to the PhD program in Anthropology for the Fall 2014 semester. One of the universities requires I send them a writing sample. I have to submit it as an e-mail attachment. They do not have any word or page limits. I intend to submit chapters from my M.S.S thesis. But I only have the paper copy of my M.S.S thesis. First, do I re-type the chapters or is scanning them okay? Second, can I submit my entire M.S.S thesis since there is no word or page limits? In that case isn’t scanning it the only option? Also, I am having second thoughts. Would it be better if I submit a paper? In that case I may have to write it from scratch because nothing I have written during my university life feels up to the mark to me. As you may gather from this I am generally feeling unsure about my writing abilities. I did great on my TOEFL and my GRE writing score was above average but my confidence level is low to say the least. I feel like nothing I submit will be good enough. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
  7. Oh writing samples! They are making me all confused!

  9. Going totally nuts over the whole application! process
