<p>Bill, what exactly is a slight reach? What percentage chance do you attach? So a school that takes under 20% of applicants can be a "slight reach" for someone with average ECs, an SAT score many have and nothing that stands out? There is a lot of irresponsible posting going on on CC right now. Where did you get in?</p>

4

<p>My scale
Reach -under 10% shot
Slight Reach - under 20% shot
Match - about a 50% shot
Safe Match - about a 75% shot
Safety - 90% or higher.</p>

<p>"-Ultimate Frisbee (varsity)"
they have varsity ultimate frisbee now?</p>

6

<p>They have it at some schools :).
Would the fact that my sister went to Georgetown help my chances there at all?</p>

7

<p>I think Lehigh's more of a match than a safety.</p>
