Princeton - low-mid reach
Stanford - low-mid reach
MIT - mid reach
Caltech - high match
Rice - match
UC Berkeley - match
UT Austin - match/in</p>

<p>Wow, your stats are awesome. I wouldn’t be surprised if you got into most of the schools on your list, but then again you never know. You are by far one of the most qualified applicants I have seen on this site. Keep up the good work. Good Luck!

<p>All but Cal and Texas - Reach
Cal - Match
Texas - Low Match</p>

<p>You could probably use another safety in case the fickleness of the schools that make up the majority of your list proves unfortunate. I think you have a decent shot though

<p>The “Asian male curse” is at it again:</p>

<p>Harvard - reach (for everyone) but not impossible (for you)
Yale - see Harvard
Princeton - see Yale
Stanford - see Princeton
MIT - see Stanford</p>

<p>Caltech - high match
Rice - match
UCB - match
UT Austin - in/safety</p>

<p>Chance me back? You can look up the more obscure schools if you need to or I can help: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/846686-chance-someone-who-totally-overdid-lacs.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/846686-chance-someone-who-totally-overdid-lacs.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Test scores are the only “weakness,” and they’re certainly not weak! ECs are good, and clearly, you’re taking tough classes. But ultimately, I think it’ll be the sexiness that gets you in. You know how they say you need a hook to get into college, that you should be well lopsided? Well, Harvard’s looking for a great scientist, a great musician, and a great poet, and a very sexy student. You just may be a candidate for that last role.</p>

<p>Harvard - Low reach
Yale - Low reach
Princeton - Low reach
Stanford - Low reach
MIT - Low reach
Caltech - Low reach
Rice - Match
UC Berkeley - IS or OOS?
UT Austin - IS or OOS?</p>

<p>By the way, I can totally tell from your username what your first choice is. I approve of your subtle execution.

<p>well right now i’d say most of them are reaches (but ivys are reaches for everyone in the world) your stats are impressive though and you still get to take the SATs at least once or twice more! i’d say you definitely have a chance! good luck!</p>

<p>please chance me back!!!</p>

11

<p>EXCELLENT GRADES, GREAT EC’S, AND GREATS SAT’S
AWESOME JOB ON YOUR AP EXAMS!!
HOWEVER YOU NEED TO REALIZE THAT THE IVY’S ALSO REJECT THOP STUDENTS WITH A 2400 SAT AND A 4.0 GPA SO THAT IS WHY I WOULD SAY HIGH REACH TO ALL THE IVY’S ON YOUR LIST. HOWEVER, YOU ARE A STRONG CANDIDATE FOR THE IVY’S…</p>

<p>Harvard - HIGH REACH
Yale- HIGH REACH
Princeton - HIGH REACH
Stanford - HIGH REACH
MIT - HIGH REACH
Caltech- DEF. POSSIBILITY/HIGH MATCH
Rice - HIGH MATCH
