<p>Well, you guys have very good statistics. Her ECs are pretty good, and great geographical diversity. I would retake Physics or World History SAT II.
HYP: high reach, but doing SCEA to Princeton would give you a much higher than average. Chance. 25%
Stanford: geographical diversity makes it a mid to high reach. 25%
Brown: mid reach. 30+%</p>

<p>Great stats!
Chance me back?

<p>Good a chance as any…(:</p>

5

<p>No
…</p>

<p>It depends on which national awards she has, can you go more specific?</p>

<p>my brother just graduated from yale and my sister is currently a student at princeton. neither had fancy academic awards other than scholars at our high school and national merit finalists. so i’m pretty sure it doesn’t matter what the fancy awards are. getting into an ivy league is a complete crap shoot.</p>

8

<p>anyways you have as good of a chance as anyone, but people with lower stats will get into the ivies even if you do not. you just really cant tell. I would write some amazing essays, apply early (yale’s early acceptance rate is 18% compared to its usual below 10%) and hope for the best. you are certainly qualified. but almost everyone applying will be just as qualified.</p>

<p>Coming from Nebraska will help you.
“a couple of national awards”: It will help you a lot if those awards are big ones such as Intel, USAMO……</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You can get in anywhere.</p>

<p>alicia says thankss! yah, i heard about the crapshoot thing and its proabaly true
she says
“are grades and sat and stuff more important than ecs? really these are good ecs?”
and no the national awards are not big ones</p>

<p>Your scores are good. your location adds a lot to it. Odds are better than crapshoot if you have good essays and recs.</p>

<p>Whoever suggested retaking your SAT II is a fool. If you don’t get into one of those schools, it won’t be because you got a 760 instead of an 800.</p>
