<p>Colleges:
Ivies, Northwestern, John Hopkins, NYU, MIT. Stanford, UChicago, Washington University in St. Louis</p>

<p>I do plan on applying to safeties.</p>

<p>I would aim for more like a 2250 for ivies and MIT, with as close to 800 in math as possible for M. You can should maybe also try the ACT to see which you do better on.</p>

<p>Also, for the schools other than MIT they don't want all the SATIIs to be math/science.</p>

<p>bump.........</p>

<p>I think in at most.
Good luck!</p>

<p>I would say 2100 is a little short, 2200s would make me feel a lot better, and could you please provide your AP scores?</p>
