<p>I've always thought that these "chance me" posts were quite useless...
And I know that no one can really give me my actual "chances" of getting into these super-prestigious institutions. But as my senior year (application-writing time) is drawing near, I can't help but feel..... a bit... nervous & worried about college. SIGH...</p>
<p>I'd appreciate any type of comment and/or advice! Thanks a lot!</p>
