Chances at Harvard, UPenn, Stanford, Princeton.. (Ivy League-levels)?

<p>Alright thanks a lot. Just a question for above comment: what exactly do you mean by toss-up? I don’t mean to be a nuisance, but I am just a tad confused by the general consensus. </p>

<p>Again, do I need an SAT if i have an ACT? I was under the impression that they are entirely interchangeable. I will add that I got a 10 on the writing, which I think is adequate from what I know. </p>

<p>Distinguishing characteristics seem to be the hardest to come by. I hope mine come from research (we will see how I do), and focus on business. Other than that this seems to be as good as I can get for now. </p>

<p>And finally, I completely understand that these schools are reaches for almost everyone. I know there are the select few who are just so impressive (or legacy) that have a fantastic chance, and I know that isn’t me. However, there are also many that won’t have a chance at these reach schools at all, which I considered me for awhile. I am just trying to gauge if I should even be considering these schools. </p>

<p>Thanks for everyone’s input; it really is helpful and I will chance back anyone that desires so. </p>
