<p>i wouldnt think its all that competitive… but the point is that they dont know it wasnt competitive. so ill let it remain that way. being one out of three chosen from india would sound really big.</p>

<p>no im not applyind ED. I cant make it in time. My terminal exams just got over and ive only just started the application process and stuff. So i definately wont make the Nov. 1st deadline unless i rreally rush through the process (which i wouldnt wanna do cuz it would mess up things).</p>

<p>smartmind</p>

<p>right now ive formulated a list of some 15 colleges. its bound to be chopped and changed after i talk with people as this is only my first list</p>

<p>In order of preference:</p>

<p>MIT
Princeton
Stanford
Amherst
Yale
Northwestern
UPenn
Cornell
Dartmouth
Brown
Williams
Swarthmore
Emory
Georgia Tech
UT Austin</p>

<p>prachi</p>

<p>i would rather goto middlebury , though ive not listed that on my list. it was one of my target colleges but i chucked it.</p>

<p>y doesnt anyone wanna go to U Cal @ Berkeley???</p>

<p>because U Cal Berk is a huge densely populated school…also all the UC’s give preference to Cal residents…</p>

<p>another interesting and terrifying statistic is that around 35% of the women at UC Berk are diagnosed with some sort of STD…</p>

<p>…my 150th post…</p>
