<p>I love the programs at WUSTL but I am concerned it is too much of a red school for me. Emory is more of a possibility, but I don't like the location or programs as much. While I am planning to apply to both, I can only apply to one early and do not want to waste my early application on a school that is unrealistic. Can you help me decide whether I have a real chance at WUSTL or if Emory is my best bet?

<p>What do you mean by red school? Also if you aren’t particularly fond of Emory, you shouldn’t apply ED there.</p>
<p>red= to much of a stretch school- to difficult for me to get into+ I like Emory, I just don’t love it as much as wustl</p>
<p>WUSTL is a school that values demonstrated interest, so ED there if you can afford it.</p>
