<p>I know that if I want to even think about getting into MIT and Stanford, I’m going to have to put in more effort than he did. I got wait listed out of high school, but I’m pretty sure I have a good shot at getting in the next time I apply.</p>
<p>If you’re still loitering around these forums in 4 years, I’ll tell you how it goes. I know I’ll be here probably to put up a “chance me” thread.</p>
<p>@yolocholo I’ll make sure to look into Columbia, thanks! By the time I get out, I’ll have met most of the requirements you have mentioned. Knowing me, I’ll probably end up re-enlisting into the reserves. Would you say being in the reserves is detrimental to your studies or no?</p>
