You should come to Darden. I love watching games and tailgating. Michigan is great for these activities as well.
and you really think that you will find time for these activities in the "boot camp".....
Whats your point? I am sorry, but I get really really pissed off when people do this. Is it too difficult to be just helpful and sincere? I am all for jokes and fun, but we will all be better off without unnecessary sarcasm.
I apologize. Although I try my best to remain objective as is evidenced from majority of my past posts, sometimes I can be off-track...I guess it is too much to be WL at Wharton, Col and Chicago at the same time and I cannot take it anymore
come on Chicago show me some love....

come on Chicago show me some love....I know that was a little harsh, but I have tried very hard to help you guys understand how such communities are built. If guys know that they cant say a simple sentence without being jumped at, there is no way our new members are going to feel comfortable participating.

I don't think I'm really a Harvard type personality. Not to mention I think it would be quite a challenge to get into. Stanford would be great, but I've accepted that it's a pipe dream. I also don't want to go to school in NYC - too many distractions and high cost, so Columbia is out.
Although my stats are good, I know I have weakness that will hold me back. No international experience, weak leadership experience, and a so-so undergrad institution.
I'm worried about being considered as another boring candidate, as I don't travel much, rock climb, run marathons, etc. I like going to football games, basketball games, tailgating, and doing some misc hobbies. Do schools accept people like that anymore?

Dabots - I think you would be a great candidate for any school including Harvard. I don't think a lack of international experience is really a weakness. I also don't think you should be worried about your undergraduate institution, especially if it's NOT located in the Northeast. I believe one of the forum members (Brown) was accepted to Harvard and he said that his "hook" was that he was from the midwest or somewhere out west.
You say you have strong undergrad extra-curriculars, I think this will mitigate your lack of leadership. Plus, as a younger candidate the lack of leadership is more understandable.
I think the more you get involved in the application process the more you will realize that you are underestimating your candidacy.
The list of schools you chose is a great list, but I would consider adding Stanford and Harvard because they like younger applicants like yourself.
