<p>Well, thats pretty much it, I know my ECs are lacking, and I don't have any sports (is that a huge deal?) but I was hoping I could get some advice on my chances at the following schools and any other possible match schools. Thanks! (these are in order of wanting to go-ness)</p>

<p>Barnard
Columbia
NYU
UPenn
Brandeis
U of Maryland
Boston U</p>

<p>and as i said previously i did not give a harsh assessement on phil's thread, just to reiterate</p>

3

<p>It probably give me some hope that your reply cheers me when I thought you were being harsh before...just food for thought. Anyway...anyone else?</p>

4

<p>btw you do know that Barnard is RD, right?</p>

5

<p>Because of nothing special in EC's, I think Penn is a long shot. Poss. WL at Barnard; but you do at least have a shot at all of them.</p>

6

<p>Thanks for your input 2331clk. What about the whole list? Could you write accepted/rejected/waitlisted for each of them. Thanks. Anyone Else?</p>

7

<p>This is a crushing blow to my fragile ego.</p>

8

<p>what is your rank? if you're not in the top 5% columbia & upenn are HUGE longshots. </p>

<p>You are in good shape for all except the top 2, but you certainly have a chance for all the schools on your list.</p>

9

<p>My school doesn't rank. Yeah I figured Columbia and UPenn were huge reaches, but what the hell, everyone needs some reaches. By the top two do you mean Barnard and Columbia or Columbia and UPenn?</p>

10

<p>oh please please please bump</p>

11

<p>Q: Do students at Barnard get looked down upon by students at Columbia b/c I know they can take many of the same classes but I was wondering what the atmosphere is between the two schools...</p>

12

<p>I think by top 2 he means Penn and Columbia, not Barnard.</p>

<p>For my amateur opinion, I agree with GDFan except Penn (reject or maybe wl) and Barnard (wl or accept). I like your list...though short you have reaches, matches and safeties.</p>
