<p>Hey Razorsharp,
I believe you have a good chance at Tufts. (Although, I will say that no one can really be sure about anything involving admissions). Your scores are decent for the University--toward the higher end of their mid fifty range. Just make sure you show the school that you want to go there, if you really do. Often Tufts is used as a safety school by ivy applicants, but Tufts is no longer a safety school by any means, as Im sure you know. Therefore you must show your interest. Put in the extra effort to write that optional essay, and keep your fingers crossed.</p>

<p>anymore????</p>

<p>I totally agree with Plena's assessment. Good luck!</p>

<p>anyone else?????</p>
