Sorry, but the OP did ask. Remember, those cases are definitely not typical, but I like to remember those stories to remember 1) apply to safety schools
2) the colleges that accept/reject you do not in any way define you- you are an accomplished, qualified person and nothing these colleges say can change that- the decision is a reflection on what the colleges feel they need to a achieve a well-rounded class, they can’t take every qualified kid and it’s not really a reflection on you 3) feel blessed and happy about the school’s you do get into- nothing is sure, but there are tons of colleges who would love to have you and every college has something unique and exciting to offer you- if you truly are this accomplished, you can thrive anywhere (or else you can always transfer ) nothing is set in stone- this does not define the rest of your life.
