My advice, ask the people around you (friends, family, spouse, etc..) to just refuse to talk with you about. It helps when the people around your are there to try to take your mind off it.
Also, find things that help you with your stress. The gym is great, reading a book, doing activities with friends any family, etc...
And if you really can't hold out, it might be time to pick up a drinking habit... haha, but seriously, life is too short to sit around worrying. B/C as soon as you get accepted there will be the next thing to "worry" about. This is a big deal in your life, we know that, and it is for all of us, but once you get into school you will have to manage your stress there too.
Good luck, and come back by the forums for support
PS. The errors that you listed in your essays are seriously no big deal... Just forget about them... if everything else in your app is good, errors like that mean nothing. They want overall great people for their program... A couple errors will not stop you from being an overall great candidate, student, and person. They know that...
feel like this should be a sticky... great post.
