<p>I applied to Yale and Brown as well. And Harvard and Princeton for fun since the apps took very little time and were free for me haha… I really want to get into Brown. Their curriculum sounds awesome. Surprisingly, I also got into Northwestern, Vassar, Middlebury, and Emory… considering I only have a 30 ACT and am a white male… I was shocked. So I am with you guys for tomorrow… Good luck! I hope everything goes well for all of us hahaha.</p>
