<p>I’m almost positive that you’ll get into Wake and JHU, and I think you have a good shot at the others. I think (I might be wrong though) that being a legacy at Duke will increase your chances there - I don’t know about Cornell, but I’m pretty sure it helps at Duke.</p>

<p>bumpity bump bump</p>

<p>pretty solid chances at your two legacy schools. stanford is a bit of a reach</p>

<p>JHU and Wake = Match</p>

<p>Duke/Cornell = Low reach</p>

<p>Stanford = High Reach</p>

<p>Good chance at the legacy schools if you apply ED. Stanford is a very high reach with a 700CR and no off the charts EC.</p>

<p>Cornell is a match due to legacy
Duke - low reach
Stanford -high reach</p>

<p>you might want to take 2 more different SAT IIs since many schools dont’ count MATH 1 and you want to get another 750+</p>
