<p>I know it's hard to believe, but he actually thinks he has no chance at any ivies T_T</p>

<p>Well, let’s just say if he doesn’t get into HYP than I don’t know who does. On an unrelated note, you’re friend’s humbleness is impressive.</p>

<p>he definitely has a shot. Still, HYP really is a crapshoot. But, your friend sounds like a great guy for not bragging. Tell him that he has a shot at-really- any school.</p>

<p>Obviously, your friend is an exceptionally strong applicant and has a good shot at HYP and a great shot at every other school. I would be very surprised if he didn’t get into any Ivies. Still, there really is no guarantee and I wouldn’t be surprised if he got shut out of HYPS.</p>
