<p>I didn't really read all of that, but they tell you to apply where you want to go, not where you think you'll get in. :-)</p>

<p>^wise words. </p>

<p>Those are great stats, I have no doubt that you'll get into Stern, but just make sure that's where you want to go. You don't have to apply early decision.</p>
