<p>Thank you!!</p>

<p>You seem to have a good shot at Michigan, Indiana and NYU.
But with those SAT scores and lack of rigor the others seem to be high reaches.</p>

3

<p>Thanks for the reply, that’s kind of what I was thinking too. I also think I have a shot at USC though.</p>

4

<p>yeah, i have to agree, although USC is tough to get into, their middle 50 ranges from 2000 - 2230, you are below the 25th percentile, so i dont know…</p>

5

<p>Well hey there’s always that 25% right? I know my test scores aren’t helping me out much but at least I have good grades to at least partially make up for it?</p>

6

<p>You have a good shot for Michigan, NYU, USC, and Indiana. Duke and Penn are reaches because of your SAT score.</p>

<p>Please chance me?

<p>Michigan- match
NYU- high match/low reach
USC- match
Duke- reach
Penn- reach</p>

<p>have you tried the ACT? the CR on the SAT kills me too, but it’s so much easier on the ACT.</p>

<p>University of Michigan- high match/match
USC- high match/low reach (get those test scores up & make sure your essays are pristine)
Duke- high reach/reach (" “)
Indiana- match
NYU- match
UPenn- high reach (” ")</p>

<p>Do you really think Michigan might be a high match? I’m fairly confident for Michigan, especially being in-state with a legacy. I think I have a better shot at Michigan than NYU for sure.</p>

11

<p>bumpppp :)</p>

12

<p>I’d say you have a good shot at Michigan, you’ll probably get in since you’re in state.</p>

<p>I would say Penn and Duke are high reaches though, since the SAT is a bit low for those schools, probably like 5-10% chance to get in each as a guess. Maybe try the ACT exam too.</p>

<p>Chance me too :)</p>
