<p>Additional Comments:
I prefer larger schools in large cities in more liberal states. My dream schools are probably Columbia, U Penn, and Stanford. I tried applying and stating that Ill need a 2-3 year deferment to a bunch of top top schools last year and was rejecting from all. Yeah it kind of hurt but I was expecting it. When I applied I only had 2 APs with a score of 4-5, I had the same GPA and SAT scores you see up there. It was also kind of a rush job since I wasnt planning on applying until like a month before the deadline for EAs. Im hoping I can get into the officer cadet school in the army and get a leadership role. With an officer position in the army, decent exam scores, a good essay, and pretty good work experience, do you think I could get into an ivy league school? If it matters, both of my older sisters are currently at Columbia. I think I could whip up a good essay since I'll be able to come up with a bunch of 'good hooks' since my resume is pretty unusual. What do you think? And if you think I won't make a top tier school, what range of schools should I apply to? Thanks for the help!</p>
