<p>These colleges are obviously a reach cuz their pretty unpredictable. But ur application is good enough. Def apply. You do have a chance</p>

3

<p>UMD: Safety</p>

<p>Everyone else is a reach, even Princeton SCEA; for U Chicago, pay attention to your essays…</p>

4

<p>Even Swarthmore?</p>

5

<p>Swarthmore is a lower reach than Princeton SCEA but it is still a reach.</p>

6

<p>With Ivies so many people apply with similar stats its always a reach, but know there isn’t much more you could have done in high school. Good luck :).</p>

7

<p>bumppppppp</p>

8

<p>Everything’s a reach except UMD, schools like that are just unpredictable
But you’re a fantastic applicant, I wouldn’t be surprised if you got into more than one of these schools
I would apply ED (or SCEA or HYPS) to your #1 school to maybe make it a low reach</p>
