<p>I plan to get my 2 teacher recs from my AP Bio teacher and my AP Lit teacher (I will have them again next year). I am pretty confident about the essays I'm planning on writing (or I at least have a solid idea of which topics I will emphasize :) ). I am also planning towards a Pre Med track but not 100% decided.</p>
<p>I have 3 top schools I am really focusing on: Brown University, NYU, and Columbia University. </p>
<p>I'm thinking of applying early for one of them if I can narrow it down to just one. I seriously like all of them equally so i'm having a hard time, any ideas? People all around me have just suggested that I apply RD because I have a good chance for all 3, but I'm still unsure... Chances, tips, suggestions, are all welcome :) Thank you!</p>
I wish I were as confident as you lol</p>
