Chance Me/Match Me - Virginia resident looking to apply to T30 colleges in CS [3.93 GPA, top 1%, 1540 SAT]

I said I got a National Merit Scholarship, and I’m really a National Merit Semifinalist. I’m not a lying person - I prefer honesty in real-life situations, but you’re very right. I just added it as like a “why not”, but now I realize I probably shouldn’t have done that. With deceit, you’re just wasting others’ time.
