I don't think so. If people are offended by the high standards you set yourself, that's their problem. I'm shut out from the top-25 programs, and I'm convinced that it is actually a good thing to recognize and assess the fact that there are people who got into multiple top-10 programs and I didn't. Interpreting that fact is another question (and I believe it is important not to jump too quickly into conclusions about one's prospects as a philosopher) but it would be foolish to ignore it. And I am sorry but if you are shut out completely, you should start working on understanding why, instead of attacking people who are more succesful than you for not being entirely satisfied.
