<p><em>You’re</em>- grammar is very important when applying to college!</p>
<p>I would put down two or three other colleges, maybe a safety, a reach, and a match. Some people think then the colleges will bargain with each other for you, but that’s not true. A lot of times the idea is just so colleges can know for their own purposes what schools their own is considered comparable to. Just don’t put down ten schools- it’s not necessary and it won’t help you :)</p>
