<p>katie - maybe it would have been better if you didn't do ED; this way you won't have any regrets. Well, too late for that now. Just believe that whatever the result is, it's the best for you =]</p>

<p>You should've just applied RD to all three schools. It seems like then, you'd be able to choose when the time came. Now, it seems like you won't TRULY be happy if you get accepted into Columbia, and you could possibly be taking a spot from somebody who REALLY wants to go.</p>

<p>Sorry about my bluntness. It's just how I see it.</p>
