Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey y'all. I'm a highschool junior at a Jesuit prep school in upstate NY & am considering applying to the following schools next year: Cornell, UPenn, University of Chicago, Boston College, NYU, Villanova, Georgetown, Notre Dame, Fordham, Loyola Maryland & Holy Cross. </p>

<p>Extracurriculars: Youth & Government, Debate, Mock Trial, Badminton, Executive Council, Refugee Tutoring... Service:
100+ hours by next year... I scored 194 on PSATs & am expecting to score in the 1300ish range on the SATs (this is my weak spot)... 4.0 GPA unweighted & in the top 10% of my class, 3 APs as of this year & I''ll probably have 6 or 7 by graduation. Any input about what schools are feasible for me and/or what I need to improve would be much appreciated!</p>

<p>By the way when I say “1300ish,” I’m referring to math/reading :)</p>

<p>OK, but scoring 1300 on the 1600 scale (or 1940 on the 2400 scale) is a little low for those schools.</p>

<p>Cornell: Reach
UPenn: Reach
U Chicago: Reach (reachable if you can write stellar essays; beware the exotic prompts)
BC: Reach (it’s more reachable than Cornell)
NYU: High match
Villanova: Low match (it’s pretty much waitlist or in at this stage)
Georgetown: Reach
Notre Dame: Reach
Fordham: Low match
Loyola Maryland: Safety
Holy Cross: High match</p>
