<p>Thanks a lot guys!! I really want to get into BROWN!</p>

<p>To be honest you’ve got a lot of EC breadth but no standout depth. Plus you’ve got a lot of “reach-for-anyone” schools on your list.</p>

<p>Brown: Reach (even in ED Brown is a reach for anyone)
Middlebury College: Reach (same as Brown)
Wesleyan University: Reach (unless Chinese kids at Wesleyan are semi-hooks there, since Wesleyan U isn’t exactly well-known in Chinese circles, in which case high match is a very real possibility)
Haverford College: Reach
Boston College: High match
Tufts University: Reach
Northwestern University: Reach
Georgetown University: Reach
Boston University: Safety</p>
