<p>the actual application itself- I thought I wrote strong essays, hopefully the teacher recommendations were strong, counselor recommendation-I don't know the lady, interview-it went well, sent in under artistic supplement my beast of a research paper-36 pages of esoteric biotech terms, it won't get read, and 4 page beauty of a world lit paper that hopefully will get read</p>
<p>Overall concerns:
rejection
deferral
and chances?</p>
