I received EXACTLY the same letter last year, so I know it's true. Sorry for that bro. At least you can now move on and think in your other applications.

Im kind of frustrated. I was dinged last year but now I feel I sent a far better application. No news yet :(

Invited to interview. After days of bracing for disappointment (my own fault, I will admit), this actually feels a little anti-climactic, for some reason...

To those who are still waiting, hang in there... there's still hope and you'll know one way or another soon!
