<p>Stanford and Cornell are reaches for anyone.</p>
<p>I’d say that you have a solid chance at UCLA, and a pretty good one at Berkeley. I know a guy who went to Berkeley OOS without stats like that. If your essays are good, you should be set.</p>
<p>I honestly think ECs may hold you back from Stanford. Just not an overwhelming amount of leadership positions. It’s a tough school for anyone that hasn’t found a cure for AIDS and cancer.</p>
<p>I think you have a solid chance at Cornell. </p>
<p>Honestly, your stats such as grades and such are not going to hold you back whatsoever (at least in my opinion). If you can bring your passion for community service (or whichever EC you’ve found to be the most fulfilling) through in your essays, you probably will stand a greater chance at Cornell and Stanford. Again, colleges in the top twenty (especially Ivies) are just hard to get into in general.</p>
<p>Due to your area, I think you have a better shot of Cornell than for the schools in California. You’re a solid student and in fact, your chances for the schools in California are also good. It comes down yo chance truthfully.</p>
<p>@Wizard09 Will my physics score really weigh down my application? I might go out of my way to retake if it’s necessary. @JimtheBoy I replied to your chance post</p>
