hey everybody. i could use some advice. i am currently on 6 waitlists. i am trying to decide on one school to send a letter of intent to. however, i do not want to alienate the other schools that i am waiting on. i have already sent most of them my grades from last semester (updated transcripts). after reading a lot of posts on this topic, i feel like i should be starting a mass letter-writing/phone call campaign if i don't wan't to fall behind the efforts of other applicants. i thinking of just writing a simple letter to most of the schools telling them that i am still interested in them, what i like about the school etc etc. will this be enough? my concern is that if i don't tell these schools that they are my top choice, they are going to think "well, he's interested but there's obviously schools that he likes better, we better hold off..." (if you can't tell, this is the paranoia stage of the application process). the feeling i'm getting these days is that if i don't tell a school that it is my top choice, it will dismiss me as uninterested/unmotivated. but i am not going to tell more than one school that it is my top choice. thanks-
