<p>Hey, I was just looking at these cause I like to help out other Canadians applying to American schools. I just want to tell everybody who’s disheartened by any rejections (Ivy or other) to not take it too hard. It’s damn hard getting accepted into an Ivy League school, or any top school for that matter. Y’all have stellar stats and it’s their loss. I mean, I didn’t get into any Ivy’s, and I’d been running a goddamn company for 5 years. I know I felt like complete s**t and was completely disheartened at the fact that I wouldn’t be going to any school that I actually wanted to go to. If it wasn’t for my parents, I’d have had a negative outlook coming to college, and that is definitely not a good thing. Whatever school you do end up going to, trust me, it will be the best time of your life. It is what you make of it.</p>
<p>Also keep in mind that it’s not so much where you did your undergrad, but more about grad school. Get good grades, do extracurriculars (and for god’s sake do the ones you like, not do ones to fill up your resume), and most importantly have a good ****ing time. That’s what college is about.</p>
