<p>Get those Sat 2 scores up to competitive range (750+) and you will be fine. Yale might be a toughy because your SAT scores are not fantastic. I'd say you have a reasonable shot at JHU.</p>

<p>Although these may be a bit off, I think your current chances stand as:
Yale=25% (I mean, its yale. You are a guy and your SAT scores are not 2250+. I'd say your E.C.s are of Ivy caliber, but being male w/no legacy will hurt your chances)
JHU=60%
NW=75%</p>

<p>i dont know about ^ but it seems that your SAT IIs and some APs are low, and your extracurriculars dont seem that amazing...</p>

<p>This is one of those scary threads. 25% chance at Yale as an Asian with way below average SATs? Sorry Samian, all of your schools are reaches with Yale being a totally unrealistic one. You need safety schools!</p>

<p>Well Yale will be a mighty big reach with your current scores. The other three are probably realistic reaches. but do add safe schools.</p>
