<p>Super Graham,</p>
<p>Remember the golden rule of college applications: Love thy safety. Don’t have backup schools on your list that you wouldn’t want to go to. Find safeties that you love. I understand your desire to get away but at the same don’t overlook the value of a free ride to a good school (LSU). I had a hunch about that one.</p>
<p>CC has a lot of over achievers trying to squeeze every ounce out of their application season. So yeah a lot of the stats here are way up there but hey, who cares? Your numbers are fine and they are plenty good enough to get you into most of the schools on your list. Good work. But really you will be judged on the strengths of your portfolio. </p>
<p>Your parents are good with the price of these private schools and with you going to NYC?</p>
