How do you answer ppl when they ask: "so where are you applying?"

I kind of play dumb a bit generally around adults… So when they ask me, I usually say like… “Well I don’t really know my list yet, it’s still really long, but my dream school is [insert name of great school]. Now, the problem is getting in!” Then I laugh a bit and the adult gets a chance to brag about some relative or friend’s kid who got in while I smile and nod.

Before last month though, I just told everyone the name of my safety school.

That being said, my best friends and I all know generally where each of us is applying, and my high school is not very competitive so I generally don’t get a lot of questions from other students.
