<p>Here are the schools I'll be applying to:
Reaches:
MIT
Princeton
Stanford</p>
<p>Matches:
Chicago
Cornell
Northwestern
Carnegie Mellon</p>
<p>I won't include the safeties, because there shouldn't be any chancing required for those. I'm mostly wondering if you could chance me for my match schools, or suggest some other matches, as the reach schools are mostly a crap shoot.</p>
<p>Gender: Male
Race: White
Location: New Jersey
Intended Majors: Economics, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics (not quite sure which one(s) I'll pick)</p>

<p>Also as an important note, I wasn't able to fit economics into my schedule, so I'm using MIT's OCW to study economics and then I'll take the AP test in May. Should I mention this on my application?</p>

<p>Work
For a summer job I'm working with my dad who sells auto parts and works on cars. I feel this could be very useful in terms of an Engineering/Physics major as both of those come into play when designing/constructing cars.</p>
<p>Hooks: 1st gen student</p>
<p>That's about it. I haven't done any research or any nation-wide competitions like the AMC or Science Olympiad. I regret this now, but I was lazy until my junior year and never sought out any opportunities outside of school to further my education. I've got to live with that now. </p>
<p>If anyone has any other questions or any suggestions on what I could do to improve my application, please post them. </p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
