<p>Your ECs are kinda generic, so that might end up hurting your chances a bit.
Harvard: reach
Penn: low reach
Williams: high match/low reach</p>

3

<p>for the top tier schools, it’s very hard to say</p>

<p>none of the schools you have listed are out of the question, that’s for sure</p>

<p>solid chance at williams, good chance at penn, decent chance at harvard</p>

<p>Great GPA and SAT. I agree with scderek4, your ECs are not uncommon for the schools you’re applying to. Also, I don’t think you have much of a story, and colleges like to know what kind of diversity (not just racial, also in your interests) you’d bring to their school.
Harvard: reach
UPenn: low reach to reach
Williams: reach</p>

<p>well I knit, I like archery, I row, I am a carpenter, and I am very involved with my church.</p>

6

<p>Harvard: reach obviously but for you still very reach
UPenn: average reach
Williams: low reach but possibly high match</p>

<p>For you it depends on essays
Or if you improve a lot on the SAT that couldn’t hurt either</p>
