<p>thanks for the help guys :)</p>
<p>i really want to attend EPGY though, even if i would be one of the oldest there i guess? there is a biochemistry/biological sciences course and it’s at stanford… two pluses for me. i want to make sure that they are the two things are i truly want, and i reasoned that stanford’s program would basically be killing two birds with one stone. so yeahh hah</p>
<p>as for the other programs (ie columbia and harvard), would it be worthwhile to apply then? 'cause i have two big concerns:</p>
<p>a) drowning my teachers in recs… those things take forever and it’s not even for college yet. i don’t want to kill them…yet at least hahah.
b) time spent on applications. the TASP application itself is freaking ridiculous (i’ve only written 3 out of the 6 essays. AHH) so yeah.</p>
<p>any further opinions? thanks guys :)</p>
