You are SET. Most of the low reaches I think you’ll get into. However, i recommend doing WAY more ECs . You have solid stats but your ECs don’t seem to swole. I’m guessing you’re from the DMV? I suggest applying for some research at NIH or anything that will stand out. Good luck fam

No, don’t do way more ECs. Colleges will rather see focus and dedication in few. Your chances look very good. Try to show more dedication in your ECs with awards though.

I’m actually from the South. @0br0123

I’m hoping to hear back on a few awards/honors at the end of the month, so fingers crossed.

Thanks for the chances!

I think you have a good chance to all of the schools above. I would consider taking a shot at Cornell, or Penn if they interest you. Not a sure thing, but you have a real shot.

7

Thanks!

8

I think you have a very good chance at all of these schools. I would suggest trying out HYPS as well if you are interested in econ/gov.

9

Thanks! @puzzled123‌ I’m trying to keep pretty grounded with my choices, but I’ll look into them.

10

I don’t know about many of them, but I DO know that it’s highly probable that you’ll get into Georgetown and William and Mary. Good luck!

Chance me for a chance back please!

Gwu- match
American- match
Emory- match/low reach
Wake forest- match
W&m- match
Rice-reach
Wusl-low reach
Honestly you have a great shot at any of these and your ec’s look really great and I say that because you seem to have leadership in most/all which is what colleges are looking for instead of a large amount of meaningless ec’s. Good luck! Chance me back please!

I probably won’t end up applying to WUSTL after further research.

Anybody know schools similar to W&M and American that I haven’t listed?
