I almost can't take it anymore. The college application process is wearing me out. None of my friends have applied to any competitive colleges, so they have no idea what stress I'm under. Tell me I'm not alone! I'm about ready to quit college before I even start!

i got in to the college search process 2 months ago. Before i didnt have an idea what i wanted to do: engineering, biology, physics, or basketweaving.
I was finding out what i wanted to do while others where finding out where they were going. Now i am 'supposed' to hand in 5 apps (unstarted) in 10 days.
