<p>Woah, I’m shocked. That’s insane stats, and he had the EC’s down too! I can’t believe he didn’t make it into EVERY school he applied to. I think this is my cue to seriously rethink applying to Yale/Princeton and stick to the high level LAC’s. Christ, I still can hardly believe his stats, and the stats I see on this site. </p>
<p>Yeah I think that’s a good idea, my essay likely will involve the challenges/language barrier, etc, that I’ve faced. I think I’ll keep Amherst as my reach school, and apply early decision to Reed when the time comes. And unless something very unexpected happens in the next two years, or I develop much more than I anticipate, I’ll leave the Yale/Princeton schools for graduate school (I very seriously plan on attaining a PhD).</p>
