<p>Is it something like 2 safety, 2 reach, and 2 match?</p>
<p>i’m applying to like 10. probably way too many haha!</p>
<p>btw, the title of this post should be “how many schools are you guys planning to apply to?”
(sorry, i just couldn’t help but point that out!)</p>
<p>“To how many schools do you plan to apply?”</p>
<p>I think in total 14, but it’s only 8 applications, since with UK schools you get to choose five with just one application, and same for UCs.</p>
<p>yes, either way is fine…</p>
<p>probably nine</p>
<p>holy crap
try 4 for me</p>

<p>At least 10, with 2 of them pure safeties and 2 of them reaches.</p>
<p>lol im with louise. depending on visits around 6 or so. and the rule of thumb is around 3 for each(Safety,match,reach)</p>
<p>12-18</p>
<p>sucks.</p>
<p>1 safety, 3-4 matches, and a ton of reaches</p>
<p>I’m going to apply EA to</p>
<p>Reachish
Match (No EA, but they said they will reply within 3-4 weeks)
Match/Safteyish (This “EA” is Dec, 15. so… whatever)</p>
<p>Anyway, then I will pick of safety - if I don’t get into my first two (since third comes in 2010).</p>
<p>Don’t end a written (formal) sentence with a preposition (I am old school).</p>
<p>3 schools</p>
<p>I don’t see the purpose in applying to 15-18 schools, just more things to waste my time.</p>
<p>^^And your parent’s money. I agree; it’s overkill.</p>
<p>I’m applying to five. Anymore than 6 is just plain ridiculous. It’s a waste of money and time.</p>
<p>By the way, 5 out of the 6 are state schools in Virginia. Yes, money IS an issue, and it SHOULD be an issue for everyone unless he or she is affluent.</p>
<p>I’m applying to 12-15 schools. Aid is an issue, so I’m shopping for the best merit aid package.</p>
