<p>Unimpressive numbers coupled with uninspiring ECs makes it an ultra-reach.</p>

<p>yeah, I’d have to agree Princeton will be a huge reach… :confused: Your SAT’s are really killing your app. Hopefully you did well on the SAT’s you just retook, but so far, high reach.</p>

<p>Good luck. :)</p>

<p>Don’t listen to these people. They don’t know what they’re saying. I think you have just as good a shot as anyone. Schools look for kids with stellar ECs and scores as well as those who do well but are just normal. College campuses need balance and being normal and doing what you love could give you a boost.</p>

<p>To the second person. Do you live in nj? I think I know you.</p>
