I'm spending it making a pros and cons list for Yale, Harvard, Stanford, Full-ride Columbia, Chicago, and NYU, fully knowing it will soon become a useless file.
I see. So, if you have won an Olympic gold medal, a Rhodes, are a Navy SEAL, have a 4.0, and 179 you actually may not get accepted at say, NYU, with the thinking that you are likely to get HYS and will take one of those?
