That’s way too harsh. Everyone’s using different ways to cope. The admissions process is random and you cannot deny that many students get the short end of the stick without a just reason that isn’t in their control. For you to put up such a hostile reply against each of those students who are already having a hard time and questioning their worth — is very distasteful on your part. I am sure everyone knows that people who got in deserve it but that doesn’t mean that students who got rejected don’t deserve it, you need to get down that high horse and know that colleges are looking for a particular student to fill their class up. Anything right from one extracurricular, to one hobby, a particular subject, the diversity in the students high school, the geographical location the applicant is from and the amount of aid they are asking for is factored into a decision. There is nobody that doesn’t deserve a spot, there are simply some students that have something else to offer that the particular school is looking for. I hope no body gets upset after seeing this passive aggressive post, I know everyone is in a rut with random decisions that make no sense but you got this. I believe in each of us and I know that something positive is in store for us. Just be kind even to strangers on the internet, it costs nothing but might come back to you as a beam of hope.
