“It's getting really difficult and competitive to get inDec 16 2013Undecided
It's getting really difficult and competitive to get in so make sure you spend a good amount of time on the application and if you don't get in directly the first time, write letters to the directors of admission telling them what you have improved on and different skills you have accumulated over the semester. That's what got me in in the end! :)
