Matt Blaze on Nostr: And before you yell at me, I'm not at all unsympathetic or unaware of how stressful ...
And before you yell at me, I'm not at all unsympathetic or unaware of how stressful (and expensive and time consuming) it can be to apply to grad school, especially from far away. But the tactics that many of these students are using just waste everyone's time - not least their own.
Focus on putting together a compelling application package, and then submit it according to the school's instructions. There's really no way around that.
