<p>What do you think?</p>

<p>Safeties - BU and Rutgers
Low Matches - UNC and NYU
High matches/Low reaches - Amherst and Northwestern
High Reach - Columbia</p>

<p>I would have definitely given you an easier chance in to Amherst and Northwestern, but your ECs seem weak.</p>

<p>Rutgers-Safety
UNC/NYU/BU/Amherst- Matches
Northwestern-LowReach
Columbia- Reach</p>

<p>All match/low reach except Columbia which is high reach. Good luck!</p>

<p>Amherst College is by no means a match. Both it and N’western are Low Reaches for OP.
Rutgers-Safety
BU- Low Match (they got a ridiculous increase in apps this year)
NYU/UNC- Matches
Northwestern/Amherst- Low Reach
Columbia- Reach</p>

<p>bumppppppp</p>

<p>You’re in good shape for most of your schools. A better score always makes one more confident but you have what you have.</p>
