<p>So I'm having second thoughts on my EDII. I definitely fell hard for it when I visited. Its the only college that I talk about but maybe its because I don't want to talk about other colleges that I may not get into (Wesleyan). I got accepted to UWisconsin-Madison (safety) and also applied to Grinnell and Brown (what the , might as well). I am having doubts as to whether this is the school I could see myself at for real, real. Maybe I didn't aim high enough. What if I don't get good enough finaid and drop out only not being able to get into Wesleyan and Grinnell and thus get stuck at a party school.</p>
<p>I'll most likely get in. I'm in their range for ACT/GPA/etc.</p>
<p>The people there were a bit pretentious, they are a bit on the richer side and have that niavity of that middle class/high middle class attitude towards things. What if this LAC doesn't find me a good job? What if I'm stuck in the hopeland that is LAC mindsets? I already started thinking about grad school. </p>
<p>It doesn't help that my parents say its an "okay" school, nothing amazing. They think I'm wasting away and could of done better. I know they've given up on me but it still hurts a bit.</p>
<p>Anyone gone through the same thing? Any comforting words?</p>
<p>hmm...go try for better. really, you mite regret it if u dont. DEFINTELY try something that's a little higher than your range, or something where your range is on the low side.. can't apply to all safeties/matches!</p>
<p>^^^^^ is a dumb argument. You will never be 100% sure where you want to go. There will always be doubts, might as well make the decision now and increase your chances than decrease your chances and be in the same situation in a couple of months.</p>
<p>I do love this school. Its me. I didn't want to be haughty and assume that yeah; I'll get in. With tougher admissions and 30% chance; who can say "Yep, I'm in".</p>
<p>I disagree with Stringa1234. When I applied to Wes ED, I felt confident that I was doing the right thing. Sure, I couldn't be 100% sure that it was the perfect school or whatever, but I had no serious doubts that it was THE place I wanted to go, even if I had gotten into the schools on my list that were harder to get into. I got in, and I haven't looked back.</p>
<p>Jespere, if you aren't feeling confident that your EDII school is the best place for you, I'd suggest writing the school to ask them to move you to the RD round. You shouldn't have to ask yourself what-ifs--esp. since you don't seem confident that this school is really a great fit. If you're afraid of getting stuck at UWisconsin-Madison, maybe see if there is another saftey (both finacial and academic) that you like better whose application deadline hasn't passed.</p>
