I wanted to bump this topic and hopefully get some more feedback (hopefully some from people involved in admissions comittees or people already in grad school). It is now the end of February and 10/12 schools that I applied to have not offered me an interview nor sent me a rejection. I feel like I must be on some sort of 2nd interview waititng list, but this waiting in limbo-land is driving me ABSOLUTELY CRAZY. Has anyone heard of someone being offered an interview this late in the game? Does anyone have an insight as to when I should expect rejections so I can stop worrying about all 12 schools? Am I being pessimistic or realistic?

I cannot STAND it when people use the phrase "could of" instead of "could have" or "could've." I just don't get it, what do they think "I could OF done ___" means? Of does NOT WORK in this phrase. I actually have to stop talking to someone when I see them type that online because it bothers me so much. And this isn't really a grammatical mistake, but one of my friends recently told me that he doesn't understand the difference between the meaning of qualitative and the meaning of quantitative. Even after I explained it to him several times. I had to put my head down in shame.
