Accepted at another Big Ten U, being told things . . .

People are telling me that since I was accepted at UMich-Ann Arbor, I’ll get in at NU because they’re both Big Ten. Does that have any solid truth to it? I don’t think it does but you never know. I have a teacher who got it at NU but not UMich because her GPA was too low. Personally, I’d like that situation since NU is where I want to go.

By the way, anyone else feel like the essays didn’t convey much about yourself? Like, you spent more time answering the prompt than “selling” yourself?
