| lol i agree with the general point which is to focus on your life now and not look for happiness in idealistic goals later on. But to play devil's advocate, one of my best friends was rejected/waitlisted at many many many schools that were lower than Brown in ranking. Brown was his top choice. He applied ED and was deferred. When he was accepted RD, I can hardly remember any time which he was happier than after getting into Brown. |
