<p>Brown - reach, with good essays you have about a 65% or 70% shot
Case Western - not familiar
Columbia - same as brown except it will be more like a 50/50 toss up
MIT - biggest reach for you, you have weaker math scores than most of applicants.
Northeastern -in
RIT, RPI, SUNY Buffalo, and UPitt - you have a good chance at merit money</p>
<p>It might hurt you that you are valedictorian, but have below a 4.0 UW, but still #1 is very good</p>
<p>Brown - reach
Case Western - In
Columbia - Reach
MIT - Reach (really unpredictable)
Northeastern - In
RIT - In
RPI - In
SUNY Buffalo - Safety
UPittsburgh - Safety</p>

<p>Brown - Match/Low Reach
Case Western - match
Columbia - Reach
MIT - Reach
Northeastern - In
RIT - In
RPI - In
SUNY Buffalo - Safety
UPittsburgh - Safety</p>
<p>All these posts with MIT as a low reach are making me super-doubt my understanding of the advantages of URM status.</p>
<p>I’ve ranked your reaches on a scale of 1 (least reach-y) to 5 (most reach-y)</p>
<p>Brown- reach, 2
Case Western- match, maybe high
Columbia- reach, 3.5
MIT- reach, 4.5
Northeastern- match, maybe high</p>
<p>I’m not familiar with the rest.
All of the people I know at Case Western may be over-qualified (a collection of top 10% ranked with SAT scores around but mostly well above 2100) so it might even be a low match.</p>
<p>Brown-reach
Columbia-reach
MIT-reach
Northeastern-in… my stats are just a little above you and i got a scholarship so idk why people said reach…
RIT-in
RPI-in
SUNY Buffalo-safety
idk UPittsburgh</p>
<p>I’d agree that you’ll get into most of your schools. Nothing is definite at Columbia, Brown, or MIT, but you have strong chances at all three of those schools. </p>
<p>What pieces did you play for the supplemental recordings?</p>
<p>^^ I did Bach and Klengel. Out of my entire repetoire, they were the two most contrasting and would work well for recording ( I decided that The Frank Bridge Cello Sonata wasnt the best choice…)</p>
