<p>in order,
40%, 60%, 70%, 96%, 20%</p>

3

<p>You have a very good chance. But remember, Ivy Leagues are hard to get in. it’s the luck that let you in. Did you do your essays and interview well? I jsut got rejected.</p>

4

<p>I’m only a junior. The single-digit admission rates are intimidating!</p>

5

<p>What is your reasoning for the percentages?</p>

6

<p>just guesses, but they are really good ones.</p>

7

<p>Write good essays. Like start as soon as you can. At schools like Harvard and UPenn, there are a ton of applicants that will look just like you academics wise. Essays are a huge distinguishing factor.</p>

8

<p>How did you do in the individual parts of the SAT 1? cr, writing and math</p>

9

<p>Assuming that you submit the ACTs and not SATs:</p>

<p>UPenn REACH, BUT JUST AS GOOD A CHANCE AS ANYBODY
Cornell MATCH
WUSTL MATCH (but you MUST show interest)
U of M (assuming this means Michigan) MATCH
Harvard REACH, BUT JUST AS GOOD A CHANCE AS ANYBODY</p>

<p>I’m very new to “college slang” so what does a “reach” school mean exactly? Does match mean like a fair-good chance of getting in? Or does it mean I match a optimal student profile at that school?</p>

<p>The problem with my SAT is that I am not consistent.
My first time was a 2150. Math = 770, CR = 680, Writing = 700 </p>

<p>My second time was a 2180. Math = 690, CR = 720, Writing = 770 </p>

<p>This flip-flopping doesn’t make sense to me :confused: Math is usually my best subject in any standardized test. I just took the SAT in June, so hopefully I can do better this time!</p>
