<p>hmm</p>

<p>WashU- reach
UW Madison- safety (in state)
Chicago- slight reach
Marquette- more of a safety than UW probably</p>

<p>Northwestern? Michigan? UIUC? Notre Dame?</p>

<p>I agree with ckmets13
WashU: maybe reach
UW Madison: safety
Chicago: reach
Marquette: safety</p>

<p>Rice?</p>

4

<p>would rice be more or less of a reach than WashU, or are they both about the same?</p>

<p>Rice’s Baylor (sp?) medical program is excruciatingly hard to get into. So if you are looking at that, it would be thousands of times more work to get into Rice than Wash U. Otherwise, I’m not quite clear either. I thought that they were at about the same standing, but seriously don't take my word for that. But Wash U is prettier than Rice (in my opinion, at least).</p>
