   Also, (pardon the separate posts, but I need to have 15 to be able to PM on this site) - your essay really, really needs to show "congruence" with your stated goals. You whole application really needs to hang together, present a coherent picture, s...

   As a former MEPN, I just want to stress how helpful it is to speak a second language. If you don't - consider doing an immersion program or taking some classes. Doing volunteerwork related to that would also be extremely helpful.

    PS My letter was postmarked on the 28th, but I only live about a mile from UCSF. God, what torture it must be for those farther off . . . knowing that decision is just floating aimlessly through the mail . . . I wouldn't know what to do!
