Which Ivies are you applying to? All of them? Are you aware that they each have their own vibe and curriculum, and someone that’s happy at, say, Columbia might be miserable at Brown?

3

Ill cut to the chase. Brown, Dartmouth, UPenn, Harvard and thinking about Cornell. I have visited the first four and loved the atmosphere at all of them.

I think you should pick your SAT to 2220+ in a single time, so that you dont have to depend on super score, or maybe pick up writing and/or reading so that your super score is still fire. I also think you should decrease the size of your awards list to only those that matter. I still think you’re a competitive candidate for the Ivys but make sure your Essays are fire
