<p>you have a excellent UW GPA, transcript is extremely strong, EC’s are great, and boards are very solid! also from an under-represented region, which should score you big points Here are my chances:</p>

<p>Cornell: Low-Reasonable Reach
Harvey Mudd: Low Reach
USC: Low Reach
Stanford: BIG REACH (I wouldn’t suggest applying… valedicotirans w/ 5.1 GPA’s and 1600’s get rejected)… perhaps look into UCLA or Claremont McKenna
Princeton: once again, HUGE REACH (keep one Ivy on, but remove 2/3… my suggestion is to keep MIT)… replace this with Vanderbilt, Northwestern, UChicago, UVA, or Duke
RPI: In
Carnegie Mellon: Match
MIT: Reasonable-BIG Reach</p>

<p>Look into some of the schools I posted you</p>

<p>Hope this helps!! Plz chance me on my 2.0 thread!!</p>
