<p>Remarkable Stats! All schools not in the ivy I see as a high match. The ivy leauge is unpredictable including MIT so it’s a crapshoot, but being asian makes it harder. I wish you luck!</p>

<p>i hate to do this but: bump</p>

<p>You have a decent shot at all these schools, but with admissions rates so low, it’s a crap shoot. I’d say you’re in for CMU and Georgia Tech. </p>

<p>GTECH: In
CMU: Solid chances</p>

<p>All others are reach to high reach</p>

<p>Nothing impressive + Asian male </p>
