<p>I'm fully aware that all of these school's are reaches for me, but I guess it can't hurt to try. Any feedback would be much appreciated!</p>

<p>They are all reaches - but until you apply, you never know. Getting the SAT score up will help. You must have outstanding essays and if you can, interview either off-site or alumni.
good luck!</p>

<p>thank you! :)</p>

4

<p>U Rochester: Match
BC: Low reach
Skidmore: High match</p>

<p>What are your safeties?</p>

5

<p>thank you so much, thats along the lines of what my guidance counselor told me.
My safeties are: St. John’s University, Adelphi U, Binghamton(I applied EA) & Stony brook</p>

6

<p>Rochester: high match (could be match if you raise your sat score)
BC: high match/low reach
Skidmore: match/ high match</p>

<p>If you can raise your sat score, that would really help, since you already have strong ECs. Good luck!</p>
