I was an admissions staffer years ago and this made me cringe. We were unbelievably shallow and full of ourselves. Way too many of us had been in a capella groups.

The classic and the best, "the wrong transcript"

Hilarious . . . but all too true. Our DS's counselor emailed us another student's transcript and scores. When I pointed out the error, she replied, "OMG!!!!"
Counselor's reply was perfect. Hopefully you can laugh about it now.
It was funny even then, and the other kid's mom and I had a good laugh about it. Interestingly, though, the counselor no longer works at the school in this capacity.

And you're a nut for taking the time to write that.
PP how long do you think it took to write?
What's wrong with you, obsessing over beating up another poster instead of joining in the fun?
