I definitely agree with wagsthedog. But if you aren’t applying to the upper tiers (ivies) because you don’t think you’d be happy there, then I think you should stick to schools where you think you’d be happiest. And like everybody else says – apply to several schools. I think the current wisdom on collegeboard is 5 to 8 schools. They may even compete with each other to get you!
