<p>So I've finally finished all my applications, and I would like to thank CC as I believe we are one big family who is in it together. </p>

<p>I'd appreciate some thoughts on how the process could end for me. Any and all feedback is much appreciated.</p>

<p>My schools:</p>

<p>Princeton
Dartmouth
Brown
Middlebury
Bowdoin
Harvard
Bates
Vassar
Cornell (legacy)
Johns Hopkins
BC
Skidmore

<p>Major: Undecided (wrote many essays about how I have many interests within the humanities but feel that college will allow me to discover which one I'm truly most passionate about), indicated History, French, and Classics</p>

<p>My common app essay is funny and shows how I don't take myself too seriously and love something that I know I'm not an expert at</p>

<p>Most essays I spent a lot of time on and I feel they're well written, but nothing that I think is going to knock anyone's socks off with outrageous creativity.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance and good luck to everyone out there! I'll be pulling for you!</p>
