<p>I’m not sure if this makes any sense, but I’m not willing to pay as much to go to a safety school as I am to a match or reach. UMich is a low match, and it honestly has great education for how easy it is to get into. The social situation is just about the worst it can get, but it’s okay because of the education. Also, my brother’s there and he likes it. And he’ll be there my freshman year.</p>
<p>I tend to avoid conservative states like Alabama. I’m only considering WUSTL because it’s supposed to be a liberal school, albeit in a conservative state. If you know good schools like that in Alabama that have good education for what I’m interested in, then that would be cool.</p>
