I don't know why I've suddenly decided to narrate everything about my Grad Application Journey to you unwitting victims, but whatever, I will continue!
I now have three verified letters of rec from people who actually know me (not just "they got an A" in my "very challenging class" letters). OMG. Now it's rly srs.
I also have a pretty thorough draft of my statement of purpose (ACK), but it needs revisions like woah. On top of that, I have to basically rewrite a couple paragraphs for each school (and make it shorter, for one school - wtf), which blows bigtime. Undergrad application essays were so cute comparatively! Awww.
