How many schools to apply to?

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>How many schools would the members of this forum recommend one apply to in order to maximize chances of admission? If money is not a huge limiting factor (I went to a Canadian University and saved a bundle on car insurance/tuition), what would be the ideal range? Also, perhaps someone could include a breakdown of the kinds of schools ie. how many reaches, reach-matches, matches, and “safeties”, etc. </p>

<p>Much thanks!</p>
