to mention that I got more fee waivers! One from the University of Illinois, one from UCLA, and the one I'm really excited about, one from Vanderbilt! That's four schools I can apply to for free! Except for what the applications cost me in sanity and brain cells.
But who needs either of those? I mean, seriously.

Long time, no post!
So, since my last post I have signed up with Kaplan's Admission Counseling program. Basically, you're hooked up with someone who helps people with their applications every year and know what they're doing. Talking with my counselor was a real ego boost because he mentioned schools that "wouldn't be a waste of money to apply to," that I had at least a long shot at, and they were schools I ruled out long ago. (Boalt? probably not, but thanks for saying so. I almost laughed when he said Stanford.) And my "target" schools? Well, he said I could do better. Which...I'll still apply to them, but it felt nice to hear that from someone who does this every year.
