To make your application better? Errrm . . . don't you think that's a bit obvious? That was my point. My snark was aimed at Chris's use of his "advice" as a launchpad for an enormous tome of humblebrag. To wit --> "I may have 4 acceptances, so far 4/4, but there is a reason I have that many." <-- so gross, right there

"IF YOU GET REJECTED ALL AROUND, CHANGE SOMETHING. Make it better. Don't just throw your hands in the air and say I did the best I can and then re-apply the next season with the exact same project, marks, and scores, as the end result is likely going to be the same." **sprints toward the door, trips over garbage can, barks both shins on lab table, gets back on feet, begins running again, makes it out of door into cold, night air: screams** EUREKA!! Pure genius. (PS) stop humblebragging, you're making everyone's eyes roll

Getting rejected feels so awful - I've got three so far myself. All that time and money and then *blink!* I haven't heard anything from UC yet, and at this point no news is good news? Jeez. Good luck with the rest of your apps.

Oy. Thanks so much for the update. I'm just going to go hide under the covers for awhile.

Hey guys, Also applying. Anyone have any intel on Cincinnati or Ohio University? From what I've been seeing on the boards, there appears to be a waiting list in place at UC, but I'm too chicken to ask if I've made it on. I wonder if all rejections have been sent? Good luck to everyone!
