<p>Your SATs aren’t that unsatisfactory. I think your varied ECs will boost your chances greatly. What about your essays? Your intangibles will set you apart from other walking 2400-SATs and 36-ACTs. So based on the info provided, I would say:</p>

<p>Vandy - high match
Cornell - high match-low reach
CMU - are u applying CS? If not, high match; if so, reach.</p>
