Additional info & updates

This site was certainly helpful to me while I applied, so thought I'd provide my information after my process was over.

** One piece of advice **
If you have numbers that are at or above the median for any school outside of the top-5, write a "why X" essay. Some might tell you this is a waste of time, unless it is explicitly asked for. But I believe my experiences with Chicago and UVA prove otherwise. It is worth the 10 minutes it will take to re-use the "why" essay you've written for other schools.
