Your numbers are pretty close to mine (albeit slightly higher). I think you're going to do really well. Good luck on your cycle!

I went through the process of submitting my application, but didn't click the box to actually do so. Still waiting on a LoR, and need to firm up my PS. But yeah, you can fill out the app, hit preview, then continue to checkout without submitting. Hope that helps.

By the way, you're only wasting your time applying to any schools other than HYSCCN.

Tuesday, August 09 2011 at 08:00 PM

Because you're a URM. More specifically, an AA male. The boost is significant, and looking through past users, URMs with numbers around yours have consistently (and by that I mean without fail) gotten into NYU at the least. Most have had one other of HYSCCN, especially Columbia and Harvard. Throw apps at MVP, to leverage money, but enjoy a totally stress-free cycle.

Ah ok. Well congrats on Michigan!! And best of luck as you wait for that KB2! Hopefully I'll be in your shoes sometime this cycle.

Wednesday, March 16 2011 at 08:00 PM

We are having almost the exact same cycle so far!

Sunday, June 19 2011 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on UVA with $$$ and on Harvard!! That's awesome.

Sunday, June 19 2011 at 08:00 PM

Thanks, man. I love the way you think. Somehow I feel like you, with a Harvard acceptance in your back pocket, are much further on the path to a perfect cycle than I am. Here's hoping, though!

Wednesday, August 03 2011 at 08:00 PM

You are having an absolutely amazing cycle!

Wednesday, March 16 2011 at 08:00 PM

Thanks!! Email... completely out of the blue! I didn't have a phone interview or anything for it. I'm honestly a bit sad I haven't heard from Columbia yet... a Hamilton would be glorious... but not holding my breath haha

Cycle over!
Sunday, June 19 2011 at 08:00 PM

Congrats on Stanford and on an amazing cycle!! Happy for you, man.

Wednesday, March 16 2011 at 08:00 PM

So... will it be Harvard or Stanford? :)
