<p>Okay, paranoid admissions question for ya’ll… </p>

<p>Last night I emailed a question to the Admissions office about my test scores. This morning I opened it from my ‘Sent’ mailbox to read it again, and I realized that it was really wordy and not very precise. There weren’t any spelling errors or anything, but it just wasn’t worded as well as it could have been.</p>

<p>There isn’t any chance that things like emails get printed off and added to your admisisons file, do they? I would think that they have no bearing on admissions, but I guess I never thought about the possibility until after I clicked the “send” button.</p>

<p>i know, sorry. i was in the Amherst forum, and realized just after I posted that my question could be better answered on one with more traffic. didn't mean to offend anyone.</p>

<p>i seriously doubt they will count the wording of an email that isn't actually part of the application. </p>

<p>they're just looking at the applications; they don't have some hidden agenda.
in any case, you've already sent it, so there's nothing you can do about it</p>
