Synopsis

The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered. "Landlord, is this what you meant by 'the house can be a little crowded at night'‽"

One of my admissions horror stories was when I applied to a very competitive university. I sent in all my documents on time, but they claimed they never received my transcript. I had to go through a lot of hassle with my high school registrar to get another copy sent, and in the end, it was found that the university had misfiled it. It was extremely stressful as I thought my application would be rejected just because of their mistake.

Sure. A student was told by a college counselor at their high school that a certain college didn't require an essay for admission. So, the student didn't write one. However, when they applied, they found out that the essay was indeed mandatory. This put the student at a huge disadvantage and they ended up not getting accepted.

A common one is the late notification. Some students wait for months to hear back from a school, and when they finally do, it's too late to consider other options. For example, a friend of mine was waiting for a decision from a university until August, and by then, most other good schools had filled their seats.
