I like to hop on this forum a couple times a year as I remember it being a huge encouragement to myself during the "potential candidate" days. Today I had the realization it has been 10 years since my first TWE arrived and I found myself in a spot of reflection. Hoping my experience can bring...
It has been a fun run, full of hope and anxiety. I received this letter back in early May, I think. After the initial panic wears off, the fact that you got rejected doesn't feel as bad as you'd think. But what now frustrates me is not knowing what led me to be rejected. Was it academics? SAT...
