Berkshire’s applicant pool has been consistently growing each year. Last cycle, they received about 10 applications for every spot. So, turn in a strong application, and hope for the best… but cast a wider net with a range of schools. Don’t just set your heart on one… there are many qualified applicants for every school, and not all of them are admitted. Good luck to you!
