Does part of me want to apply to extra colleges so I can screw other students in my school and in the country over by taking their spot, just like they might take mine in my ACTUAL top choices?

<p>I think you just proved CGM's point. These kids who get the spots at YOUR top choice school probably actually want to attend that school! They aren't applying just to screw you out of a spot.
Boy- I'm glad my kids have good college counselors and parents to help with this process so they didn't feel the need to do things like that.</p>
