      Starbucks actually has pretty good benefits, and you can learn how to make Starbucks quality drinks. Haha it might be more worth it than grad school :P

    considering contacting the schools who rejected me to ask what my weaknesses were. Good idea? Will they bother to reply?

    1. Tall Chai Latte

      Tall Chai Latte

      I believe it's okay to ask. You have nothing to lose here, if they do reply you gain the info on how to make the next round better.
