Well things got cleared or did they?? Last email (again a one liner as usual) said " I have no idea how i emailed you. accept my apologies." I am not going to say the name of program as my i dont intend to embarrass or riddicule anyone. It was just a funny thing to share. With thousands of applications things can go wrong. My theory is he was typing some ones name with same initial alphabets and used the autocomplete function in his email (as in gmail) and clicked on my name by mistake. but who knows what happens. I think not using eras server to send emails let this kind of things happen. It could not have been ERAS message because obviously i didnt applied to the program. it will also save people from checking there spam messages (man i have to go through hundered spams daily). Anyways although i am not going to apply to that program now as it was not in my original plan and i not gonna let a chance happening alter me from it; but lets say hypothetically if i do apply to that program how would be the response. come on guys we humans have feelings and cannot be without bias, so would his mistake will make him give me just a little bit edge of doubt in my application and meaning now i would have slightly more chances of getting interview OR would it make him flinch away from his mistake and to run away from his guilt or whatever of his mistake and make my chances of getting interveiw now a bit thinner. It was funny anyways, I am wondering what if i actually have scheduled an interview. ????
