<p>I meant “out”. I hate auto-correct!!!</p>

<p>I’m surprised that your “above average” HS only sends 1 or 2 to the Ivies each year. I think you have a good list of schools and you appear to have them categorized properly, but it would help to know your class rank, or approximate decile as well as some idea as to how many AP classes you’ve taken, just to confirm this.</p>

4

<p>I think you’ve put together a nice list, nothing stands out as unreasonable given your stats. That is a big list though! Are you really applying to all, or planning on paring down list??</p>

5

<p>I plan on narrowing it down after I do some more research and attend some visits</p>

<p>I agree with highbury. As long as if you write a good essay and have decent recs you should be fine</p>

<p>your stats are actually really similar to mine and I am applying and have looked at a lot of the schools under your matches list, so I would say you have a good chance for those schools because I’ve been told the same!</p>

<p>Thanks. We do have very similar stats.</p>

<p>I think your list is pretty good and that you have chances at all of the schools! If you apply to one of your reach schools ED/EA, just be sure to show a lot of passion! Good luck and I hope you get into the school you want!</p>
