<p>Strange school list. Also if you need fin.aid it might affect your results (e.g. at Wash U - not need-blind)</p>

<p>what do you mean about financial aid?
does needing financial aid make it harder to get into some schools?</p>

<p>also, does the fact that many other smart kids from my school applied to McGill make it harder for me to get in?</p>

<p>What about....</p>

<p>does the fact that many other smart kids from my school applied to McGill make it harder for me to get in?</p>
