To Future Applicants: I don’t want to post all of my stats, but this website has really helped me to get an idea of the calibre of applicants/acceptees to these schools, so if anybody has specific questions regarding my application, PM me and I would love to answer them. </p>
<p>In my opinion, the best piece of advice I can offer is a quote from Shakespeare’s Hamlet: “This above all: to thine own self be true.” I never did any extracurriculars that I disliked. If I hadn’t been accepted to Yale, I would still be able to look back at my high school years with no regrets. Live life on your own terms. A school does not define you.</p>
<p>And remember: be passionate.</p>
