Cornell: high reach
Notre Dame: reach
Carnegie: high reach

USC & all UC’s: match</p>

<p>Your stats look pretty good, I would not automatically assume that Math II SAT II is going to be an 800, though.
ECs are a little generic, but accomplished, so not bad overall. Not to be mean, but you seem to fit the typical “Asian Student” stereotype. </p>

<p>Stanford is a high reach
Cornell is a reach, but as an Ivy, is kind of random.
CM and Rice are about a 50/50
You should have no problem with all the UCs.</p>
