<p>I really want to emphasize Anonymous99’s first paragraph. like REALLY emphasize it. </p>
<p>Reapplying is probably one of the biggest differences in opinion between BDM and myself. I’m not really sure why his views are much more negative about it than mine, but they are. Maybe personal experience…I have 8 pretty close friends who were initially rejected on their first application and then admitted on the second try, all to schools they had applied to the previous try. I also have one friend who didn’t get in until his 3rd try. But like Anon said, you have to improve your application in between. You can’t just let it remain the same. Everyone has weaknesses in their application, and there are always things that can be done better.</p>
