<p>I recently finished up my first year at UCSB. I am planning on applying to a variety of top tier schools in the fall. I've been reading a lot of posts on this site and it seems like everyone really knows (or think they know) a lot about this stuff. The schools I am looking at are all the ivy leagues (minus princeton), stanford, ucla bizecon, and cal haas. With the exception of haas, I will be applying as an economics major. Let me know what you gurus of the admissions process think. Thanks!</p>
