<p>i called a prestigious college and i said something REALLY, REALLY dumb. like i stumbled over my words, stuttered, lost my train of thought, and then asked them a dumb question out of sheer nervousness... but before that I had left my name and telephone number.</p>
<p>will they use this phone call against me in any way?</p>
<p>Whenever I call anybody that relates in any way to my top choice school- I am always extremely careful. That secretary or w.e either wouldn't care and understand that your nervous, or, while giving your name and phone number to a person relating to admissions comment about what/how you said certain things. I know for a fact that colleges take note of people asking stupid questions during tours or interviews, I can't be sure about a phone call. For your sake, I hope she just doesn't care. Good luck.</p>
<p>wait...</p>
<p>so they CAN use this against me?</p>
<p>oh man....</p>
<p>You probably should have considered that before you made this call. Good luck!</p>
<p>dude, they won't consider it against you. They don't remember the millions of people that call them by the minute...get over it. No-one cares and it doesn't affect anything.</p>
