So, what are the adcoms doing?

Members do not see this ad.

'Cause they sure don't seem to be reviewing our apps right now. The interview thread was on the third page, and we're all commiserating about our dry spells. I'm thinking they're playing "Hot or Not" with our photos.

Come on, funny people... 😀

I personally think they are playing "trashcan basketball" with our essays.

they're actually busy acruing live farm animals for various sacrifices/rituals to be performed on or about october 31st. or maybe its "hot or not".

honestly, i don't know. i've been waiting for a while to hear from a few schools, and i have no idea what's taking so long.

hahaha ... it's funny ....
yeah, i'm waiting for many schools on the East coast ... wondering why those adm. officers take so long to decide .... my apps were conpleted in Aug, early Sept.

I *think* I have a crush on my adcom interviewer! His eyes were hypnotizing 😍

I need a life, desperately.

I figure most adcoms are too busy filing their teeth into points and drinking blood. They probably haven't bothered looking at mine, because they telepathically know that my soul has already been sucked out by this process, so I'm not very attractive "meat" to them.

Either that, or they forwarded my application to the Police Dept's SWAT team Negotiators. So, when there's a really heinous suspect holding people hostage and making crazy demands, they can slip the app under the door. When the bad guy reads my app, he'll start laughing hysterically which will distract him and the SWAT guys can zoom in and save the day.

Or maybe just show it to really depressed people. My app, a bottle of Prozac, and the patients are probably happy and laughing their a$$es off.

There has to be SOME reasonable explanation!!!

Heehee! You guys are good.

Or, you know, those monkeys they use to evaluate applications don't train themselves.

I think they're holding a contest to decide "Miss Pathetic Applicant 2005". after which it will take several days to frame the winner's application. I hope I win! Or if not, at least take Miss Congeniality. 🙂

i used some really nice resume paper for my dartmouth application, so im assuming whatever pages are left are rolled up in the admissions office bathroom, minus the photo which was added to their hillarious "wall o' losers".

I hate this process...hey, I'd love to be a Mr. Irrelavant for a few schools, like in the NFL draft.

i think they are on a cruise ship sitting on deck enjoying pina coladas and laughing at our anxiety.

Are you guys really that anxious about it? How do you survive traffic jams and long lines?

edit: mmmm pina coladas. its 5 o'clock somewhere.

Why review applications when you can sit around in your new Gucci suit watching your offshore bank account grow in 85 USD increments?

i'm just playing along, but seriously i have my neurobiology book in my car to review in traffic jams and my organic chem flash cards in my pocket for long lines...

on cruises, i think it's 5:00 all the time 😉
