<p>Thanks! Can you elaborate on the difference between high match, match, and low match? Sorry I’m not current with the cc slang.</p>

<p>College guidance slang can be a little confusing for newcomers:</p>

<p>Reach: The toughest schools to get in
High match: A greater chance of rejection than acceptance
Match: About even
Low match: A greater chance of acceptance than rejection
Safety: The easiest schools to get in</p>
