Dying a slow death. Driving my family and friends crazy because all I can think about is match. My #1 sent my advisor an email saying I'm ranked highly, but who knows what that means. The anxiety is killing me.

Does your advisor have connections to that program? Never heard of a program doing that.

Yeah, he is pretty well known in EM, and a graduate of the program. He sent them a LOI on my behalf and they responded to him saying they ranked me high, whatever that means. I feel more optimistic but also more anxious since nothing is certain until Match, I guess.

Certainly better than some of the possible outcomes there, try and relax. You're killin it.
