<p>man there are some really smart people applying to Cornell. I'm glad I dropped out of the running. :D</p>

<p>

I see you being stronger than most of the applicants here. While there are some terrific applicants, i am sure most of the strong applicants didn't bother posting stats</p>

<p>thanks let's hope other schools think so ;)</p>

<p>brand, to what schools will you be applying?</p>

<p>As of now, NYU, Wesleyan, WUSTL, UTexas, and McGill, though I may add a couple depending on the decision I receive from WUSTL. Are you still applying to Stern?</p>
