1. First of all, I just want to say thanks to everyone for posting. It sucks admitting that you weren't accepted on Dec 1st (myself included), even if it is anonymously, but it does make me feel better to know there are other applicants that have competitive applications and didn't get in. I feel like I am not alone!
2. As sh**ty as it is to hear, we just have to trust that it is still early in the game and we will continue to have more interview opportunities and chances to get in. I know, its easy for everyone to say that already has their admissions letter in hand, but its true.
3. Something that made me feel better was having a plan B. I didn't like to think about a plan B until I had to, but nonetheless. I have decided that I will (even more seriously now) consider Teach for America. Just simply HAVING that resolution took a huge weight off my chest, even more so when my parents supported my decision. The worst part about the few days after December 1st was the unknown, that "what now?" feeling. Having a plan in hand at least gives me something to focus on and a goal to work towards.
Besides, sitting around and stressing doesn't do much good. Let's instead start to focus on finals and stay positive.
