I would add, don’t apply to a school because it’s selective. Understand what you want in a university and apply accordingly. If it does happen to be a selective school understand you have a very limited chance of being accepted and while you can be disappointed, don’t be surprised or resentful. Finally, applying to even more selective schools only means you have a very limited chance to be accepted at more schools, not that you have a better chance to be accepted to a selective university. What is assured though is that you’ve increased your chances of being disappointed.
