I think a lot of us get our rejection letters and sit there scratching our heads. We did everything right and still got turned down.
My goal with these posts was to provide a benchmark and hopefully keep my and others' hopes in check. No matter how good you are, you're still a long-shot with these things. When working on your application in a vacuum, you start to feel so confident, and that makes the blow harder to bear.
