I participated in a Stanford chat. My concerns were assuaged. The admissions people said they are still working their way through the pile of applications. So all the R1 applicants who haven't received the infamous under review email - don't worry. (I know I'm being very pot and kettle now...) The adcoms believe it will be about two more weeks before they can get to everyone.
I've been slacking on my other essays. I'm applying to UT, Michigan, and Tuck through the Consortium, so I have at least seven essays to write. I also need to nail down two sets of recommendations. (I know I should have asked for them all at once, but you know what they say about hindsight.) I plan on organizing myself tonight. The early deadline is December 1, which will be a stretch, but we will see if I can bang it out.
Thank you to everyone who has sent a word of encouragement about my application worries. I've decided to ban myself from the very addictive forums for today, and I must say I feel much calmer.
On a VERY side note, for all you closet Harry Potter fans, the Trailer for the Prince of Azkaban is out. Check it out at The Leaky Cauldron. I have to say it is VERY cool. Something Wicked This Way Comes .... heheheeeh!
