I'm not going to bore you all with ECs but I'd give them a 7 on a 1-10 scale overall.</p>
<p>Essays: Decent but probably not mind blowing.</p>
<p>If I had to guess, your only reach would probably be Princeton and perhaps Columbia. Everywhere else, I honestly could imagine you not getting in; you should get into William and Mary with your eyes closed!</p>
<p>I’d say Columbia and Princeton are reaches. Especially Princeton. Some other factors like geographic diversity or minority status might make a difference for you. All other schools are pretty solid targets.</p>
<p>Yes, I would have to agree with everyone else, Columbia and Princeton are high reaches. But I still believe that you have a significant chance getting into to them.
All others are basically matches.</p>
<p>Princeton and Columbia are your only reaches, but imo you could still get in pretty easy. Should be in at Cornell, Dartmouth, and Duke. Everywhere else is a safety.</p>
<p>Everyone else is pretty much right, only Princeton and Columbia are reaches. I’d be surprised if you got rejected from any of the other colleges you listed.</p>
<p>That being said, I think Princeton is a very high reach, and Columbia is a relatively low reach.</p>
<p>You’ll get into one of those for sure, probably a few ivy leagues and get a great education no matter what. Even feel free to relax haha. lucky! Princeton is always a reach and so are a few others, but you stand just as good of chance or better than anyone.</p>
<p>The fact that you got 800 in two subsections of the SAT I but couldn’t get it in the other really speaks for itself. You’re gonna have to do better than that, especially for those adcoms who are just sitting looking for ways to tear your application apart. Seeing something like that weak 770 stands out to them and immediately puts you into the DENIED pile.</p>
