Today, for the first time since kindergarten, I won! I came first! Yes, I'm first on the waiting list for the M.A. degree I applied to. FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

If you're on the waiting list for an MA, then I assume you already have a BA, which means you've already accomplished something of note.

Usually someone drops , hopefully that put you in the hot seat and you can finish getting learned .

Well, you've waited this long...keep going (: you'll get it soon enough. Never quit. You're a perfect example of a striver (:

Could someone explain to me what it means to be in a waiting list for the M.A. Degree please?

Masters program. If you're not familiar with American colleges , a simple Google of master degree may give you a more explicit example and explanation. M.A. / M.S. Are similar but it different subjects .

It's posted in France, but it's same thing. Bachelor = Licence (but the bachelor admission isn't selective In france . for France it's "grandes écoles" where some ( few want go in "grandes écoles) students went for selectives exams= M.A = Master in France .

For some reason I don't see an issue with this...

This is a pretty dumb FML. There are a lot of things worse than being placed on a wait list, just saying

Just be like Stewie Griffin and say "VICTORY IS MINE!"

Don't see how this is an fml since you already have a Batchalor's degree. Grad school is hard to get into, but you're first in like. Worst case scenario apply somewhere else man.

I think you deserve it! ☺

whoa take it easy pal ! why do you wanna be first or want to win so badly since kindergarten!?

knowing fml the ending was not what i expected

Your screen name is what made this FML awesome! But besides that, keep your chin up. It's still early so there's a very good chance you'll get through. Bonne chance!
