czesc Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 My blood pressure is rising like crazy with every spam email I get, but I'm not hopeful there's anything coming this afternoon, considering there were two admits to UChicago here within minutes.

hdunlop Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Yeah. Tho a third one has popped up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czesc Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Probably someone just getting to their email and/or just getting around to posting on gradcafe. There are always stragglers. Oh well. Another good fit that wanted nothing to do with me. Edited February 12, 2013 by czesc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdunlop Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Well you're sure not doing much to help me keep hope alive are you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czesc Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Admittedly, part of me is hoping that I can reverse-jinx the process by assuming rejection. That's what this has come to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdunlop Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Tell me about it. I'm mainly not devastated yet because I've assumed I'd bomb out since I got my first reject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhD or Bust Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Tell me about it. I'm mainly not devastated yet because I've assumed I'd bomb out since I got my first reject. This is where I'm at... I got into one school so far (the same school where I got my MA), but everything else has been a flop... I'm thinking what is plan B, as it seems my current school might not be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benedicite Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Curious about the Penn interview that was posted. I guess they're continuing to do interviews? They did a big round of Skype interviews a little over a week ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katzenmusik Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Coming to this site is a sheer act of masochism for me at this point. Rage, rage against the dying of the light! (Okay, yeah, I'm being needlessly pessimistic. I have seven good prospects pending, and two of those have expressed strong interest. But I wish I could receive an official acceptance and be able to breathe a sigh of relief!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bactrian Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Curious about the Penn interview that was posted. I guess they're continuing to do interviews? They did a big round of Skype interviews a little over a week ago.I was called today to set up the interview. I was surprised to receive it since I figured they were done with all that. A few pages back someone (NewEnglandNat maybe?) said they did multiple rounds and I guess that's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czesc Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) WAITLISTED AT PRINCETON! I am worth something, at least, even though I know I'm not getting in. Edited February 12, 2013 by czesc lafayette and schlesinger1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katzenmusik Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Good for you, czesc! I've been following your travails, so it's good to know a top program is interested. Keep the hope alive! czesc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czesc Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks, all. Amazing how much new life this consolation prize breathes into me. Part of me wonders why they even bother with the list, though, considering New England Nat's comments about how no one ever gets in off of it?
