I expect a swift and absolute rejection will follow this great dishonor and shame my family. I must have shown more than ten percent of my true power this time, and startled them...

That application scored a 7.0 on the writing section of the GRE, too. That's just bad luck.

I'm pretty sure I have an idea of what they were doing instead of studying... mcoa1996 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jillcicle Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 University Of Californa, Los Angeles (UCLA) Sociology, PhD (F19) Rejected via Website on 9 Feb 2019 ♦ A 9 Feb 2019 report spam Nothing like waking up to a rejection from your dream school right before getting your wisdom teeth out. Bring me all the PaAAaiiiNnN. Whoever did this I would like you to know I was shaking from opening my own UCLA rejection (that's how my body is coping with this, apparently, no tears but lots of shaking ?) and I saw this and burst into guffaws. Had to tell my mom I got another rejection so I could explain what was funny but the laugh was worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next in the seminal series of coping with rejection: cry in the shower, gain 5 pounds, have an icecream tummy, talk to oneself in the mirror, and then go back into the dark abyss of applying again.
