<p>Bump that SAT score to 2200 and i’d say you’d be set for rice. Ivies are always reaches so i’d say a low reach seeing as how it’s a lower tier ivy. I’d put your chances at ok with that SAT score, but great with a 2200</p>

<p>thanks, I really appreciate it</p>

<p>and I’ll try my best for that 2200
luckily cornell doesn’t look at writing (what I’ve been told at least)
but rice definitely does</p>
