I feel like I'm going to break down and cry in a nervous heap!
I wish I could just know whether I have been accepted into my schools or not, but at the same time, I dread an answer!
I spent 4 years at Carnegie Mellon feeling inadequate and nervous, despite studying and killing myself over books, I felt like I would never measure up. This self-doubting and loathing hurt my academic career, and now I fer it will ruin my chances for graduate education!
It is the 22nd of February, and my only news has been two rejections from Berkeley and Wisconsin-Madison (two schools I was not overly concerned with, nor did I care about) but that leaves three schools left.
I read on one community that U-Mich was calling people for the past few days, and in my house my father is steadfastly against answering phones before 5pm...some craziness about telemarketers...but if I had known, I would have answered the phone!
I feel that I should know by now, something, anything! I just fear that on Monday I will receive three flimsy envelopes with a rejection and I will have to go on and do something else next year...waiting to apply again...
