What I hate is when you learn of a colleague's or friend's relative going through rush at a highly competitive school and you offer a rec....And they say "no thanks, we aren't bothering with those, they said she doesn't need them" or "thanks, she's not looking at KD, all her friends are Kappas" true stories. Face Palm. Good Luck with that.

Oh, so true! So many of my friends are hearing this from moms of PNMs! Here was the crown jewel that someone heard last week: "We aren't bothering with getting recs to ABC, they were awful at our twins' campus and I'm sure they're the same at our youngest daughter's school."

And these are the same mothers who rant about how their special snowflake was the victim of computer malfunction/jealousy/you name it and didn't get into the "best" chapter. *geez*

We're finding a lot of these late registrants came to spring preview and think they're already registered.

And then there's one who said she was waiting for all her recs to come back.
