Bates is too far Hamilton is too close Vassar doesn\u2019t have a creative writing program Oberlin
and Vassar have pianos in every dorm building I could take cheap lessons at Oberlin.
I can\u2019t get into Williams but I can get into SUNY Geneseo Middlebury is a hard target
what the heck is a hard target I think Colgate is a reach if I apply with SAT can I
afford BU? I can go to Lemoyne for free does name recognition matter? I can\u2019t spell
the other Maine school. I\u2019m not Jewish enough for Brandeis I\u2019m too Jewish for Georgetown
I\u2019m not confident enough for Emerson.
Connecticut College doesn\u2019t have a writing program Vassar still doesn\u2019t have writing program.
I have legacy status at Wesleyan and Santa Clara should I go west?
What\u2019s the difference between early decision and early action my SAT scores aren\u2019t
good enough to submit neither is my ACT score. I\u2019m not
well-read enough to study English can you get a job in the humanities can you
get a foot in the door in STEM? I should have taken the SAT again is test optional
a myth are my scores even that bad they sure aren\u2019t good I know people who got 1500s \\would
a convent take me convents don\u2019t require SAT scores I\u2019d probably
join a French convent I should have taken French my five years of Chinese isn\u2019t getting me
anywhere. Vassar doesn\u2019t have a creative writing program I want to go to Oberlin I
can\u2019t go to Ohio I don\u2019t have control over my own body in Ohio stay away from Ohio and just go
to Massachusetts because why would you go anywhere else? You\u2019ll get in everywhere you
apply it\u2019s such a crap shoot mom you haven\u2019t applied to college since the eighties apply
everywhere you want to go
but applications take time why waste time on reach schools I know you want me to go to Vassar
