JHU: high reach
NYU: low reach
BU: high match</p>

<p>Good luck! :)</p>

<p>UPenn: Reach
JHU: Reach
NYU: High match
BU: Match</p>

<p>NYU and BU are both matches, and JHU and UPenn are both reaches, as stated. Maybe Georgetown or BU might be less of a reach, but still, tough tough stuff…</p>

<p>You could try a post-grad year, my younger friend is doing that…could beef your GPA and whatnot for a fresh year of college apps.</p>

<p>Talk about said program and emphasize it within your application, possibly helping your app; talking about how well you know your programs and want in on them might also swing the vote. Good luck!</p>

<p>thoughts on this, maybe?
