<p>If you dont get into princeton, would you take a year off, do something creative and then apply again?</p>
<p>If I don't get into any school, I think I'll be forced to do that lol.
And at this point, with all these scary figures, I think that has a good chance of happening...</p>
<p>I have a friend who didn't get into her top, and only, choice school. She's taking a "year off" and will reapply next year. IMO, though, spending a year without any hardcore definite plans can turn into quite a shmess: You end up doing something you hadn't planned to do (like getting married :p) or you'll do nothing at all and just wonder from one creative project to the next. Not great...</p>
<p>Yea I wouldn't do it for just one school...but right now, if I only got into my least favorite, I don't think I'd go.</p>
<p>yeah. I fear that happening to me. I think travelling, working on my ECs, maybe taking Physics C, calc BC and maybe another AP along with all this might help.</p>
<p>CTC, you're probably just panicing right now. Just wait for RD decisions, and then make your choice.</p>
<p>yeah...thanks. I AM actually getting a little freaked out now, hearing of the number of apps, and the fact that there will be only 12 international BSErs admitted RD</p>
