Should it really be this Difficult to Decide? ColumbiaED vs Harvard SCEA

<p>I’m sorry, I’m guess you’re right. Maybe I shouldn’t apply anywhere, take a couple years of community college and try and transfer after that.</p>

<p>Yes, SAT is below 2300, but by 10 points. Is that 10 points going to make or break me? Is it worth it to go waste another $50 and a Saturday to raise my score by answering one more question correctly? Really?</p>

<p>No 800s on SAT 2, but 2 above 750 (only required to have 2 anyway so…) and one that wasn’t was a freshman year try after taking the Bio HN course.</p>

<p>How would you know I don’t play sports or an instrument? Because I didn’t write it in the original post? If you are going to insult my ECs, at least try and find an old thread where I did go in-depth of my ECs.</p>

<p>I do play sports. I have played basketball since I was 10 and still do today. I do not play for my school’s team, but I just can’t make the time commitment to do so and thus I play in a rec league with kids my age. In addition, I coach my own basketball team of 10 year olds, and we are pretty damn good.</p>

<p>So please tell me DDN, what is “realistic”? I am really interested. I am applying to top universities, and I am expecting rejections. I hope to get lucky and get some acceptances as well. Because in your opinion, Harvard and Columbia aren’t realistic it seems, so why is Brown?</p>

<p>PS: You seemed to have an SAT above 2300 and perfect SAT2s, as well as sports. Hey, maybe you play the piccolo in your free time. Good for you. How did applying early go for you?</p>
