Just wondering if there are any folks out there who have applied more than one semester in a row and to multiple schools? It seems like the trend on here is people getting in on the first try.......I wonder how many of us will end up applying more than once.
And just how many semesters in a row would you apply before switching to "plan B"???
I just hope that everyone gets in eventually and isnt completely turned away, this is hard work!!

I applied to one school and got turned down. Since most schools around me only start in the fall, I had to wait a whole year. This time I applied everywhere and have 2 acceptance letters and still waiting on the other schools. Always weigh ALL your options..sometimes plan A is not the best plan.

Mine is a long story, but I have applied 4 times since 1994. I am sticking in there and pulling up my boot straps and appling again (#5) for fall of 2007.
I will not go quietly into the night!!!
