<p>general, i sympathize with you. she seems obsessed, and in fact her constant calls could actually work against you. there are many articles about this very subject, one intersting one in US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT, the college edition. SHE should read it. Not to mention she is not being sensitive to the fact that YOU are the one stressed out, you are the one who is sitting on pins and needles waiting for an acceptance! Nothing will change the outcome now, she should try to be proactive and support you and think about the future and what positive things she can do to HELP you, not to DEFLATE your confidence. Are you by any chance oriental? I only ask because a really good friend of mine has the same situation, she is Korean, she is totally stressed but tells me this is how it is in their culture. Hang in there, before you know it...........you will be on your way to college and this phase will be over! Did you get into any schools yet?</p>
