Hello,
I suspect I’ll need to reapply since this cycle is going badly for me and I was wondering if any adcoms could shed light on a question for me.
Looking back, I suspect my writing is what ultimately brought my application down since my stats and activities are all pretty good. Specifically, I think I appeared naive and overly idealistic.
In practice interviews, I actually instinctively drift away from what I wrote in my personal statement and I’ve been told that I interview well (I need to get IIs first though).
How readily do adcoms overlook previous concerns of naivety/immaturity if the applicant appears to have grown since then?
