I'm sorry this happened to you...and I'm sure that your mom calling was a final act of desperation. It is your education and I believe in the right to do what is necessary to get your application in. On that note this prof sounds SO shady. Why would she hop on YOUR project once it was almost done? Anyway I hope the best and that you find a LOR writer that is a lot more trustworthy. I have my fingers crossed for you.

"brilliant" vs. "very, very good" student - LOR issue
dragynally replied to splendora's topic in Applications
Since we've already had the debate about whether or not to read LORs I'm going to say its a dead issue...REALLY dead. Now back to the problem at hand- I am so sorry that your prof said that. It seems really shady to me. But since you can't confront him for obvious reasons, I would suggest that you try to make connections w/ other profs. You need 3 LORs in most cases and it never hurts to have more then 3 profs to write them. It could also help to ignore what he said completely nand just be the best student you can be...cause I know very few "brilliant" people. -
I watch "happy" video's on youtube...like cat on horse and other ones that make me smile or laugh.

Getting What You Came For: The Smart Student's Guide to Earning an M.A. or a Ph.D. Playing the Game: The Streetsmart Guide to Graduate School I prefer more "academic" books to novels. Since I like movies and want to make them novels only read as slow movie to me...I'm odd.

Never give in. Never surrender!!! I will keep applying until I -or the school I'm applying to -give up. Of course I will still look for a career and training in other fields but this is a life dream I'm working on.

I think you're hoping that school A will give you more funding. Cause other than the funding anyone can see school A is you choice. :wink:

I don't believe in regret. I did what was best for me. -
I started exercising 20 mins a day. I know its good for you but I'm just trying to kill time.I also check the forums and results daily.

I think you need an in between. I only took off 2 years. Some are only taking a year. I might be in a different place then someone who took off 5 or 7 years...make sense?

I'm sure gracieh is trying to help by relating their personal experience. Trust me I appreciate it. I think you should take a quick look at your schools New students FAQ. They sometimes have answers to things like these. Also taxing changes from state to state. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Be honest and open about your desire to learn. Ask lots of questions. Good luck

Well I'm only applying to 1 school, right? So since it IS a top 5 I had to go w/ the second option.

I'm gonna take the high road and so its not ok...because hating them wastes time and makes it harder to plot revenge :twisted: Not that I approve of such actions P.S. I agree that I hope everyone here does well. Good luck all.

Nope...They figure its your responsibility to look up the info and rules.

Yeah I'm pretty much a klutz and will probably need to ask for a new pin each year...But my FAFSA is outta the way. IvyHope, I had a similar issue where the school need FINAID hella early. Thanks for the warning

When I pick schools I consider what the students are like. When you go to an info session or a visit listen to what the students say or how they act. Like if the students seem competitive and you're not into that sorta thing you can factor that in... Good luck

Classmate FORGED letters of rec... What do I do?

Misterpat is right. I shouldn't have said anything. -

Am I the only one who thinks the girl could be full of it? You all should have WAY more faith in yourselves than this. I am way more afraid of the person w/ the great grades and real LORs than some liar. If she did this she WILL get caught. And I feel as though the OP has no faith in anyone in the system. Do we all believe that admission committees and profs are so stupid as to believe that these fakes- that probably sound like one person wrote all of them- are real? What she did- IF she did it- is not right. However everyone seems to think that this girl is a viable threat...YOU ARE ALL BETTER THAN HER!!! -
They made the pin for me.
