<p>Looks like a solid match conspidering your stats! Chance me back plz!</p>

<p>Low reach would be my estimate.</p>

<p>Yale is not a 'match or ‘low reach’ for anybody, but that being said you have just as much as chance as any other reasonable candidate.</p>

<p>Agree with soze. You have just as much of a chance as anyone else. Note that Yale does reject many with 4.0 and 2300. Just make sure u write good essays</p>

<p>No… you are not golden. You have an amazing (and I mean it) application. However, for some reason, Ivy league schools and other top tiered schools still reject so many qualified applicants. One school even stated that they could replace their entire class of freshmen and replace them with rejected applicants and it’d still be the same. </p>

<p>You have a very strong application, but don’t be so sure on getting accepted. You deserve it though!</p>

<p>Yale: High Reach </p>

<p>Nothing impressive.</p>

<p>Should I apply early?</p>

<p>B-b-b-b-bump :)</p>

<p>Well you really lack focus in your ECs. High Reatch</p>

<p>Almost always impossible to tell, but I would say that you’ve got a great shot and should definitely not hesitate to apply.</p>

<p>Chance me back!

<p>Do my ECs really lack focus? I thought they showed i was a math/science kid… and back to my previous question, should I apply early? i’ve heard the “special” kids apply early but I don’t know if the fact that I co-founded a business makes me special enough. :/</p>

<p>D to the A to the N to the G! Your application is very impressive, but so is everyone else’s who applies to Yale. Try to relate everything you’ve done outside of school to two or three categories like music and science and talk about how much you love them…you probably already know to do that though. As far applying early, you don’t have to special to do that. You just have to be deathly sure that Yale is THE one for you. In conclusion, you have a good shot, but it’s Yale so one never knows!</p>

<p>hahaha thanks. I think I’m gonna go SCEA! :)</p>

<p>Your application is impressive, but obviously you know that Yale’s a crapshoot for anyone. I’d say reach for you, but understand that you have as good a chance as anyone of getting in.</p>

<p>Chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1549053-columbia-ed-will-chance-back-within-12-hours.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1549053-columbia-ed-will-chance-back-within-12-hours.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I really don’t see anything special about your application, IMO. You’re an average applicant for Yale… I would say high reach.</p>

<p>Ok, I guess I shouldn’t get my hopes up then… :(</p>

<p>“Ok, I guess I shouldn’t get my hopes up then”</p>

<p>Correct!</p>
