8 Ivyies, MIT, and Stanford.

Did you really ask why do you think your chances at Stanford are low? The acceptance rate says it all. I half suspect you are trying to rile people up with this post, but I will go along with it. You know your list is 100% prestige driven. You know there are plenty of top 50 colleges with renowned business and STEM programs. As for post #43, Cornell and Berkeley are reaches for all.

I think you should definitely only apply to those eleven schools you listed. As long as you like UTA you are all set. You have no hook. There are other kids like you, and perhaps this story from a year ago will give you some insight. http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1891200-asian-rejected-from-everywhere-postmortem-p1.html

P.S. It’s Ivies.
