As long as your essays are good, I could not imagine that you wouldn’t get into these schools, even Yale. I mean, I have no idea what they are looking for, but you are obviously worthy of admission.

^My daughter had very similar stats to OP’s and was rejected by Yale last year!

Where does your daughter attend now?

^ UCLA with Regents Scholarship.

anyone else?

By the way I did not mean to say that Yale will reject you per se, as your record is definitely excellent and very competitive. But schools such as Yale are crapshoots, as you should know!

You should have a better chance than most!

Are there any otehr schools that I should add to my list?
