Chances? Duke, Brown, Northwestern??

<p>Applying to the following RD (CompSci/Engineering):
Brown, Columbia, Duke, Tufts, Michigan, Northwestern, JHU, BU, Illinois, NYU, and Umass (in-state)</p>

<p>GPA: 3.81 UW, 4.5 W(not reported though)
Rank: 45/350 --> this is unweighted, no weight AT ALL to APs and Honors classes, I've took the hardest course load and all that. My school is competitive, 15-25 students to Ivies/T-20 schools each year out of ~350 students
SAT: 2290 (780M, 760CR, 750W)
SAT II: 800 Math 2 and Physics</p>

<p>Alright, with ECs I won't go into much detail, but basically I'm interest in robotics. I've spent the last two years at a university lab doing research related to robotics/CS(bulk of my time outside of school, lol). I've been published, how much does that help? Some ECs as well, such sports, clubs, but robotics has been the main focus.</p>

<p>Brown: Reach
Duke: Reach
NWU: Reach
JHU: Reach
Tufts: Low reach
UMI: Low match
UIUC: Low match
BU: Safety
NYU: Low match
UMass: Safety</p>

<p>I suggest you add CMU, which is particularly strong in robotics and CS.</p>

<p>Oops, yeah, need to add CMU. Any other suggestions?</p>

<p>Bump bump bump</p>

<p>Brown, Columbia, Duke, Tufts, Northwestern: reaches
I think you really good chance at the rest. Hopefully you can get into one of the reaches :slight_smile: </p>

<p>If you don’t mind can you chance me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1412925-chance-me-ucb-nyu-stern-uofm-ross-etc.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1412925-chance-me-ucb-nyu-stern-uofm-ross-etc.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>CMU: High match</p>

<p>anyone else??</p>
