<p>I just spoke with an adcom this morning, and requested a review of my application to let me know where my weaknesses were. Anotherwords, why was I rejected?
Was it my SAT's, my essay, recomendations, EC's??</p>
<p>Well, he didn't divulge much, but I learned a little.......apparently their male/female ratio is low, so they give preference to males, I am geographically undesireable, and the coach did not give me a rating, so therefore she didn't consider me a high prospect (I kind of knew I was not going to be a starter on the team, but hope to improve).</p>
<p>Anotherwords, blah, blah, blah---you're perfectly qualified, but we have lots like you. No weaknesses, but not a stand-out.</p>
<p>sigh----guess I knew this, but hoped to have a little more personal review---maybe my essay did suck, my GC screwed me (I read a thread like that), what the hell made you choose others over me with my almost perfect GPA, which everyone had told me was the number one criteria to get into a good school!!</p>
<p>LOL---at least I got the satisfaction of trying to make sense of it. Now I can move on!</p>
