how many colleges to apply to (safety, matches, reaches)?

<p>mine is most likely 2-4-4</p>

<p>mine is like 3-5-5. I think 13 is a lucky number.</p>

<p>I figure it's probably best to have two safeties, just in case one rejects you for being over qualified, and just because then you still have a choice of where to go even if you only get into your safety schools.</p>

<p>I think it really depends on your results from early action. If you apply to, say, a slight reach for early action and get accepted, then the schools you apply to during regular decision can all be reaches.</p>

<p>Mine is </p>

<p>2 Safety
3 Match
2 Reach</p>

<p>i think i'm gonna go with 2-2-3 or 2-3-2 one of the schools is in between.. that one i'm applying ED
i just don't want to apply to tons of schools...</p>

<p>0 safety</p>

<p>2 match</p>

<p>4 reach</p>
