Zubrus Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Apply widely Top 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13ilmago Posted October 5, 2017 Author Share Posted October 5, 2017 Thanks! Any recommendation for strong labor schools that are below top 20? It seems like just applying to top 20 would be a dangerous strategy given the randomness and competitive nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
