<p>Students with 4.0s and 2400s (or near) should stop requesting a chance for an Ivy. All anyone can say about an Ivy is that you're not getting in. Some schools are easier to chance, but no one can say that you'll definitely get into an Ivy. So, you can ask for chances, but try other (non-ivy, and top) schools, in which you'll probably most-definitely be accepted. </p>
<p>4.0 and 2400 = "maybe" at top schools</p>
<p>Your qualms are answered.</p>
