<p>Brown and Penn - Better chance than a lot. No guarantees. Low reach?
Duke - High match
Northwestern - Match</p>

<p>I think you’re good for Duke and Northwestern; for Brown and Penn i feel like it’s a 50/50 shot, although your extracurriculars could be stronger.</p>

<p>You are in good shape for all schools, hopefully your essays distinguished you from all the other asian students with good grades (please don’t take this the wrong way). You should definitely get into NW, not so sure about Duke, but you have a pretty good shot. Brown is a toss up, really.</p>

<p>Chance me?

<p>thank you for the chance post!
you have great scores but although your extracurrics are good theyre not amazing to the ivies sometimes insane standards. still a great candidate for all of these schools.
brown and penn=reaches (penn a bit moreso)
duke=high match
nw=match
it also depends on what programs you’re applying to. penn is difficult for business, nw for theater and med, etc.
good luck!</p>

<p>You have a great chance at Northwestern + Duke (high match). Penn really depends on what college you are applying.</p>

<p>You have a decent chance at Brown, as long as you “unscatter” your EC’s when you discuss them in your essays. Gl</p>

<p>In my opinion
Brown - low reach
Penn - low reach
Northwestern - high match
Duke - match
good luck !!
