It shows that high schoolers these days are competitive and want to get in to the most prestigious universities in the country. I mean, I have no interest in going to Yale or Dartmouth, but I’m probably going to apply there anywhere for the heck of it since they’re Ivy League universities and since the CommonApp makes it much easier to send in superfluous applications.</p>
<p>Q:Is my rationale misguided citygirlsmom?
A: Probably.</p>
<p>Q: Is that going to stop me from applying to colleges that I would hate to attend?
A: Hell no.</p>
<p>Q: Does part of me want to apply to extra colleges so I can screw other students in my school and in the country over by taking their spot, just like they might take mine in my ACTUAL top choices?
A: HELL YEAH!!!;)</p>
<p>I’m being completely honest.</p>
