<p>The ignorance of posters on this board is astounding. Whoever called Jerome Fisher a “target” seriously needs to do some research on top schools and programs.</p>
<p>Your stats qualify you for every school on your list, but their admissions are virtually crapshoots - combinations of perceived financials tatus, essays, extracurriculars, admission officer subjectivity, etc. Considering that Fisher is your top choice, you should definitely apply ED and really focus your “why Fisher” essay on what you’ve done in high school, your interests, what you want to do in the future, and why it’s right for Fisher. I got in ED without any business or engineering extracurriculars, so I’m left to assume that doing my essay in that manner worked for me.</p>
<p>Penn M&T - high reach; it’s M&T
Penn Wharton - reach; it’s Wharton
Stanford M&E - no idea what this is to be honest, but high reach; it’s Stanford
Princeton ORFE - high reach; it’s Princeton
NYU BPE - no idea what this is, but I’m going to venture a guess that you’ll get in
Columbia - high reach; Columbia has gotten ridiculously hard to get into, especially for The College
Northwestern - low reach
MIT - high reach; it’s MIT
UW - safety</p>
<p>For what it’s worth, you don’t have to apply separately to ORFE at Princeton; once you’re in, you can major in anything you want (with the exception of Woody Woodrow, which you must apply to).</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
