Hi,
I am currently working on my applications and would like to have some suggestions on the number of schools that I should try to target (including any stretch schools)? I want to know if there is a good number to shoot for when thinking about how many schools to apply to in Round 1 & how many in Round 2? Is 6-8 schools too many?
Also, does it matter if I apply in R1 vs R2 vs R3?
Thanks!

Hey there,
Well, the number of schools would depend on the conditions of your application, the strength of your profile, and how tough your strategy is. Let's call 4 schools the absolute minimum. 6-8 is great. And I've even had clients who have applied to 10-12 schools!
So really it's all up to you and how much time you can make for this.
From R1 to R2 there's not that much of a difference other than that if you are aiming to high, you will get SOME results in time to know by R2, which can be a big advantage. R3 is MUCH tougher than the other two rounds as by then the large majority of places are filled, plus the schools already have a lot of great candidates on Waitlists....
Hope this answers your questions!
