What will you do if you don't get in?

<p>Will you go into depression? Bounce back quickly? Fill out tons of RD apps, or just resign yourself to state school/safety school? Are you consciously prepared for rejection, or are you secretly thinking you will get in?</p>

<p>fill out tons of RD apps</p>

<p>Out of spite, the same things I would done if I'd do get in, except for going to Dartmouth</p>

<p>eat my feelings specifically ben and jerry</p>

<p>I have five RD apps—Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Wash U and Amherst—waiting for me, along with a heft KU scholarship. I'll be okay. Sad and dejected and miserable, but okay.</p>
