i think it also doesnt help that the 175 is my third try and my degree gpa is lower than my cumulative. so an adcom could look at my app and go "hmmmm....FRAUD" lol
I understand why you wanna reason through what could've gone wrong but at the same time @chag this is a much less reasonable process than it should be and it doesn't really point to a deficiency on your end
@manifestT14acceptances: mostly! i got two amazing professors and one employer who said he had never written a LOR before but that the one he wrote for me was very cheesy and positive
i think a decent tip for fighting that, @MightyUnableSphinx: since you seem concerned about your PS is to write about a time where you did something like WITH someone else, not necessarily "write about a time where you had to work on a team" but just like you AND someone else are main characters and you guys have the same goal
