<p>Right. So applying to more schools resulting in average essays and resumes gives one a better chance? </p>
<p>Not quite.</p>
<p>Apply where you’ll fit best. That’s what’s most important. We can’t decide what’s the right option; from an objective standpoint sure, but not on an honest level.</p>
<p>You’re a great candidate for each of these schools (I’m a school stalker) </p>
<p>You’d match well with most of them, as for Yale – it’s kind of a reach for you.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that if you perfect your essay, you’ll get in. ECs and Essays are used to weed students out, from a pool of well qualified applicants.</p>
<p>Good luck, don’t forget to do my “chance me’s”</p>
