Really beating myself up, although it wouldn’t have made a difference - I wrote my loci to Mich this morning at work, sped home to edit it before decisions came out (half expected them to) and I got the R right as I was about to email the loci. Very sad bc thought I had a great networking relationship with them / they sent me a fee waiver and package in the mail
michigan's waitlist is the size of the pacific, i feel like i should be offended that i just got a straight R

NotSexyDeanAndy

NotSexyDeanAndy
16:07

12:18
