<p>I guess I’ll add some colleges I’m interested in:
Washington University St. Louis
Cornell
Boston University
Northwestern
Columbia</p>
<p>I want some of the UC Schools (UCLA, UC Berkeley, UCSD) to be Safeties, and of course it couldnt hurt for a chance me at HYPSM</p>
<p>Washington University St. Louis-match
Cornell-match if you apply ED
Boston University-safety
Northwestern-match if you interview
Columbia-reach</p>
<p>I think that the chancing issue is pretty meaningless as very few, if any, college admissions officers are present on this site. I will say that your stats make you competitive for all the schools. I can’t tell how deep your ECs were. Science Olympiad award is a bonus. If you are very interested in WUSTL, show interest in the school (apply ED, visit the campus and interview, attend info session). I mention this as my son will be attending the school this fall. By the way, interviewing at Northwestern has no bearing on your chance of admission.</p>
<p>Thanks nervedoctor!</p>
<p>PsychoDad10: I know they don’t mean much, I really couldn’t resist the temptation of chance thread haha. Mainly, it was because I really am not sure what schools would be a fit, whether I’m aiming too high or too low, hence the asking for school suggestions in the title. I’m pretty happy with my stats, but my ECs are not spectacular, and I haven’t won anything really major, so was wondering where my position put me. I will consider visiting WUSTL soon, and thanks!</p>
