Sh*t people say when you are applying to grad school

I'm assuming that's a rent free basement? -
Well guess since this the feast of St Patrick, I can throw this out there: although the Patron Saint of Ireland,like a lot of Patron Saints of these European countries, St Patrick actually isn't of Irish origin but is believe he was either a slave from Gaul or somewhere else on the European continent.

When you say longer essay, about how in depth are we talking here?

Poor training & poor upbringing? In all honesty I think I freaked out over it but anywhose here is the sitch. I was a visit & we were invited to sit in on a grad seminar & they were discussing & they said we could throw in our thoughts & ideas. Anywhose, one person raised a point, which I had counter to, so I raised my hand to bring up my point. However no one was recognizing my raised hand, so I basically started talking to the person who made the point in a side convo style. Then all of a sudden they asked me to share my point out loud. I asked the next day & the students all said it wasn't a big deal but I felt so bad & just flat out rude. I thought I could get away with it. If they want to rescing their acceptance over that then I will surely understand BUT just know I am a venegeful person & I own a set of matches.

Hey there new friend! Don't apologize! All knowledge on here is appreciated b/c I am sure someone will find some use in it. Also, you should def jump in on the larger 2012 chit chat thread.

Well I may reapply next cycle but I am in a weird holding pattern so we'll see but I know one thing is certain if I have to reapply, I am def gonna cut back my grade cafe activities. Either way, good luck to any and all members of the 2013 application group

Totally off topic but prospective days can really leave you conflicted ... a school can sell themselves with just the littlest things

Don't worry Sally Mae has an aethereal department ... she will get her dues one way or the other -
If it's any consolation, even when we hear back not all of us get the clear picture & are stuck in a holding pattern, where we KNOW we are going somewhere but just where isn't clear

Did you also dream of holding public newsconferences about how you bankrupting your grandchildrenand how your colleague across the bed from you needs to cut back from his/her spending in order to stem this heavy debt being accumulated? -

Nope a pretty unique tale in this instance ... although there was one where a parent inquired their child would find time to settle down -

Just to throw a curveball, the schools I'm interested in are kind of far & I have to work (it isn't official but I am almost certain I have to), so would it be OK to take classes @ the local JC? I have some understandings ofa couple of languages but I'm so out of practice, etc that I know I will def have to take the courses when I start school

Random question: can a school rescind their after a prospie weekend b/c you might have been a tad bit obnoxious?
