Again, you seem to be confusing honest advice as to the hurdles you may face with discouragement.

As to your second question, you will need to present yourself much differently from how you've presented yourself here. The typical 19- or 20-year-old guy is not likely to be impressed with a 26-year-old who acts like he's still in high school.

For somebody who has his mind set on rushing, you also seem to have your mind set on blowing your chances. Assume that people from ASU will read this thread, if they haven't already, and will able to identify you with ease. Assume you are already rushing. And know that you are not making a good impression so far.
