Sooo true. 🙂
That sounds like just the type of dream I would have! 130 classes? I would be sick of school by then, so props to you. I always feel like nontrad apps must have more character.
Usually my dreams include people opening my application, laughing at it, and forwarding bits of my personal statement to people with the header "LOL look at this s***".
Hahaha....character is a nice way to put it
🙂 I talked to one of those application consultants once and at the beginning of our half hour he was like....uh....huh? This is a lot of information. You look unfocused.
By the time he had actually READ everything...he changed his mind. The problem is, if you look at the sheer volume of my history from the outside, it looks unfocused. You have to look more closely to see that I stay at jobs and volunteer positions FOREVER; most activities that I participate in have something really key in common, and I actually do have a cohesive plan.
Problem is, adcoms seem to only take 10 minutes to read apps. Blah.
I love how its only "bits" of your personal statement that get forwarded and laughed at. Like they would take out some random quote and no matter what context you read it in, it's funny....it is such a funny image.
I had an I Am Legend type dream last night. It is still creeping me out. Luckily it was followed by a dream where the streets were made of marshmallows.
Of course, I never went anywhere because I would just walk outside my door, eat a bunch of in marshmallows, then walk back inside and sit around feeling stuffed. Each day I walked a little further though.
A dream analyst would have a field day with me.
