Applicant's Advice
"Shotgunning is good, actually. Apply to a lot of safeties EA to get first acceptance early and practice essays. Apply to OOS public schools EA (especially for CS) as they have higher EA acceptance rates but lower RD. McGill and University of Toronto are great fallbacks if you have good grades. Don't be discouraged by rejections."
