<p>I graduated in the Top 10% of my high school class in '07. I applied and was accepted to Northwestern on a bet with a friend…I ended up going to a CC and am glad to be accepted to Mays for the Summer, after not taking advantage of my high school stats. Mays accepts 75 externals and they get over 600 applicants, so at best 12.5%. There are kids just as talented as you and me in every school. Not to sound sour at all though, I hope you end up with a school you are truely happy with, man. You’ll probably be good anywhere, you just might have to take some detours…</p>
