<p>The ivies are reaches just based on your test scores. Your ec’s are amazing, and your being hispanic should help you. I think all are matches besides the ivies, which are all reaches.

<p>I think that Harvard and Princeton might be low reach, but everything else is a match. Test scores are on the low-medium side for ivies, but everything else is so stellar it probably won’t matter.</p>

<p>Thank you! I will chance back!</p>

<p>All of these colleges you are a very good fit for. Scores a little low for Harvard and Princeton but you still have a very high chance of getting into those as well. Good Luck!!

<p>buuuuuuuuuuuuuuump</p>

<p>Daang those are some great extracurriculars! I think with those alone you could get into most places. I think you have a very strong application, your SAT scores might be a little low for the Ivies but you are still in the range. It also helps to be URM and 1st gen. Overall:</p>

<ul>
<li>Harvard: reach</li>
<li>Princeton: mid reach</li>
<li>UPenn: low/mid reach</li>
<li>Georgetown: match, even low match </li>
<li>Cornell:match, maybe high match</li>
<li>Middlebury: match</li>
<li>Swarthmore: match</li>
<li>UC Berkeley: high match, I think they’re a little more score based? Might be wrong</li>
<li>UCLA: low match</li>
<li>UC Davis: safety</li>
<li>USC:match</li>
<li>University of Virginia: low match/safety</li>
<li>Boston College: high safety/low match</li>
<li>Villanova: safety</li>
<li>Northeastern: safety</li>
<li>George Washington U: safety</li>
<li>American: safety</li>
</ul>

<p>Good luck! &it would be great if u could chance me back, warning you my stats aren’t as great as yours XD

<p>Those hooks automatically make everything a low reach lol. But, with those EC’s it makes everything a match. If you want real “reaches” now, just apply to Oxford lol. Good luck in Harvard xD .</p>

12

<p>Your SAT is low for a good chunk of those schools, but your hooks are going to help you a lot. You have good EC’s as well. As a fellow ivy/top college applicant, I can only be jealous. ;)</p>

<p>Besides the ivies, match/low reach. Very strong scores with a strong leadership showing. The ivies would be a gamble, of course, but i dont believe you are out of the running.

<p>Similar story.</p>

<p>Fantastic Hooks and ECs. Most definitely of the highest caliber. Stats are below average for Harvard and Princeton that is a fact. Thus low reaches for both. UPenn a high match, rest are somewhere between high match and safety.</p>
