Well, for first time applicants I bet the acceptance rate isn't much over 10%. I don't really remember the data, I thought it was around 30% of applicants eventually get in, but a lot of people end up reapplying. As long as you have a few 'safety schools' then I'm sure you will be fine. You beat me (barely) and I got accepted to my top choice and a few others, but my top choice wasn't Harvard or JHU.

Don't underestimate the luck factor. It really is a crapshoot. I'd recommend applying to at least 7-10 schools. You just never know.

you are correct. i wont be disappointed if i dont get into JHU or Harvard, its just worth a shot. Any of the schools i listed + many others i didnt would be fine. I just dont see the need in pointing out that im not the #1 most qualified candidate in America, which i never claimed to be.

Nah, this is your brag post, say whatever the [censored] you want. I remember how psyched I was when I got my score back. It was about 1% as psyched as I was when I got my first acceptance, and about 3000% as psyched as I am every [censored] day in class. And this is only first year, which is easy compared to M2. [censored] it sucks.
