like just to let you know in general cause my mom told me and its kind of a known fact but. we live in avon. a very small town in connecticut, very wealthy but very small. schools like yale and harvard [[ especially ]] take about .5% of the students that apply from avon. which is like 1 person. 2 is high. same goes from brown or dartmouth. they are toughh schools and just a simple school like avon high your not gonna se a good perfecntage of us going. sometimes not even one. see i know this because there was this old girl from my neighborhood that did avon summer theater, we all htaed her, like i use to hate her and i still do and she would brag about how she's only applied to yale and harvard and finally one of the graduated seniors, kate she explain all of this too us, and my mom explained it. and i was like wooow. so like just to let you know. it was kinda of schoking to me. but like those is what everyone thinks of as "top notch schools" because, they are. but there not simple to get into esepcially if your from some small town.

well meg... I THINK that you will get it cause ur way smart. jusst do well, and do a shit load of clubs and sports, and community stuff.

also, try to apply for a summer learning program at the college you wanna go to, cause that will help you ALOT. my sister did programs for like, 3 schools (Brown, BU, and NYU) and she got into all of them, plus like 7 more. haha

but that i think it a super good idea to show you love the school and are ready for college.

hope that helps! good luck! ♥

well...

well my friend tom from my old town is going to dartmouth this year... and ridgefield isn't that much bigger than avon... so i figure if he can do it, i can try just as hard and maybe make it too. i dunno, i already know that it's gonna be like, insanely impossible, but that's not gonna stop me from trying.

i'm kinda the same way, except with ucla (mostly because of softball)

but if you try your hardest, and do well, you'll probably have a really good chance
