<p>Are you URM? If so, you have an excellent shot at all the schools. However, Yale/Harvard are kind of reaches, but I’m predicting roughly 70% for those schools. ALl the other one’s are 95-100%</p>
<p>Excellent test scores, but ECs are ok (nothing major). All the Ivies are reaches, though, and there is no surefire way of knowing who gets accepted. Best of luck though.</p>
<p>Yale, reach
Harvard, reach
Duke, low reach
Northwestern, low reach
Cornell, high match
Brown, high match/low reach</p>
<p>I think of these six, you’re likely (though not guaranteed - nothing ever is with these schools) for Cornell and one or both of the low reaches. Harvard and Yale are both unpredictable crapshoots and I don’t know enough about Brown beyond the fact a 2290 is in the upper half of the middle 50% for standardized test scores.</p>
<p>I think you made a typo. I believe you have a 2290 SAT not 2390? Based on the individual scores you listed…</p>
<p>I believe this would change the perspective of many people who already chanced you</p>
<p>URM = Under Represented Minority (Google is your friend for acronyms that are new to you on CC)</p>
<p>I can’t give you my chance without an unweighted GPA as it is impossible to say. </p>
<p>If your SAT was 2290 not 2390, with your ECs, and I would estimate as 11/673 a high 3.9 or 4.0 with full AP or IB, that Yale, Harvard, etc are reaches, Northwestern a low reach, Cornell a high match, and Brown a mid reach.</p>
<p>Your primary weakness is unimpressive ECs. </p>
<p>Given the correction to your SAT I results:
Yale - Reach to high reach
Harvard - Reach to high reach
Duke - Reach
Northwestern - Reach to low reach
Cornell - Reach to low reach
Brown - Reach to low reach</p>
<p>Just as important, let’s assume you are admitted to one (or more) of these superb universities, can you afford it?</p>
