High stats applicant learns lessons the hard way.

@StagNation, you are getting great results!! A lot to be proud of. And major props to your mom for having the wisdom and foresight to counsel you to create a list that didn’t rely on $$ from your Dad to make it happen. And major props to you for listening and going forward with that plan. If your Dad does come through with some $$, sweet, you will have a cushion. But if not, you will still get a fabulous education. You have shown great maturity here and I expect you will be very successful where ever you land.
