So, from my perspective I think Sen just over-reacted. |
I came in as a collegiate post-MIP and I also am used to dealing with the "awkward aspirant" because it isn't unusual or shocking.
However, I know what "awkward aspirant" meant to me back then (partially because I was an awkward aspirant at times) and what it means to me as an alum.
So, there clearly isn't a universal "awkward aspirant" definition or experience.
I'd be interested to read your "awkward aspirant" experience based on what "awkward aspirant" means to you, sigmadiva.
