Don’t listen to abeautifulmistake.

turkeylips73, you do have an excellent app there, but when it comes to HYPS, what seems to be a really ckufing awesome app isn’t much. I’ve seen applicants with as good as and better applications than yours, and still were rejected from HYPS. Harvard is a bit of a reach. Yale, not so much; Princeton, same; Stanford … pretty much the same.

Not to say you don’t have a chance, 'cause you do. But other schools like Berkeley or Cornell are matches.

Apply if you want. But do choose a college that you actually want to go to, not one that simply has prestige.
