First last July/August I asked the Adcom to review my application. They did. They told me that a glaring weekness in my app was that my career goals were unclear. So in this application I made sure that I had very clear goals. My Personal Statement #2 was pretty much realizing this weekness, looking at three different but very similar careers, choosing one, and then seeking out assignments in my current job directly relating to this future position.
Thanks. I also got a feedback but it did not highlight any weakness, which makes it a little difficult.
Below is a snippet of the feedback:

...after reviewing your file, there is no particular weakness I can point out. Overall the application you presented was strong, but other candidates simply presented a more compelling overall picture.
I know it is frustrating not to have a specific point of feedback, but in your case, the decision was truly the result a highly competitive applicant pool and limited space.
One thing i took from the above was to tighten any loose ends and make my appl as compelling as it could get.
Any additional suggestions or advice would be helpful. thanks again
BTW - I was dinged R3 (2009 appl season) after interview.
Maybe it was the R3 factor since they did interview you. I was R1 applicant that did not get an interivew invite.
