How many schools are you applying to?

Just wanted to see - I'm applying to three, possibly four.
I'm kind of wondering if I should apply to more, but I really REALLY want to go to one in particular over the rest (to the point where I'd consider taking a gap year and reapplying just to go there), so I don't see the point in spending more money on applying to schools I can't afford to go to (that out of state tuition is killer).

I think it really depends on stats. I have really really low stats. The minimum. I have also worked full time in pharmacy for over a year so I have enough funds to apply to 18 or 19 schools. I am trying to shorten it down to 10 schools but it depends on stats I think. if you have a strong application, I feel like 3 to 4 schools is perfectly reasonable. 👍

Totally makes sense!
I can't imagine spending that much money applying to that many schools! It's a very good think you've saved up!
