Having doubts, but only because people are getting tons of interviews and I've just been complete for a week or two at most of the schools I applied to. I know I have some decent odds at many schools I applied to.
Impatience? Absolutely. I'll admit it 100%.
Due to the wait (and the one we'll REALLY be in for), here's what I'm picturing when each school's adcom opens my application packet:
Adcom1: "What is this crap?"
Adcom2: "I don't know. This must be a joke. Read this kid's response to Essay #2."
Adcom1: "Pffft... strive to help others? That is so trite. Such bull."
Adcom2: "Hey Alan, go grab me that giant rubber stamp. The BAD one."
Adcom3: "Here you go."
(Adcom2 dips it in red ink, stamps it.)
REJECT
But, really, thanks for the laughs.
Adcom1: "Hell, throw it into the fireplace. It's getting cold in here."
(Adcom3 lights his cigar with my application, throws it into the fire.)
Adcom2: "At least the poor bastard left us with his $700 application fee. One step closer to that high-definition TV we want in the Teacher's Lounge."
(All Adcoms laugh)
