<p>I’d say match, but your major is a tough one. Econ is one of the most flooded Wellesley majors, so for that reason I’ll say high match/low reach. You may be truly better off applying as a math major, if you’re still undecided!
If you could chance me back, I’d appreciate it.
Best of luck, maybe we’ll meet at Wellesley :)</p>

<p>Nma716, thanks! I saw your post as well… I do hope we can meet at Wellesley!! And I actually like maths better… So should I apply as a math major and consider double majoring in economics once I get in?</p>

<p>Catria, thanks!</p>

7

<p>Yes, that’s what I would do. Also Wellesley makes it extremely easy for students to change their major, it’s a very common practice there.</p>

<p>Okay, thanks for your advice! </p>

<p>Bumpity bump, anyone else please?</p>

<p>Very good GPA, good SAT, rigorous course load.
But AP scores are pretty mediocre, ECs are not very impressive too. Certainly you participate in a lot of clubs but what about the depth? I didn’t see any leadership or MAJOR awards here.
Overall I’d say Wellesley is a low reach for you. BTW recommendations and essays are really important too. Good luck;)</p>

<p>Vesper0723, thanks! I know W can’t be a match for me… Hopefully applying ED can increase my chance somehow… W is my first choice so I do hope to get in.
I’m working hard on my essays too…
About the clubs… I’m an international student and I have only spent two years in the US, so I’ve only spent no more than two years in most of the clubs and activities.</p>
