<p>MIT- mid to high reach
Upenn and berkley - mid reach

<p>^ I dont see how Berkeley is a reach for him. I think you have very high chance of being admitted into UC Berkeley! Only reaches would be Upenn, MIT. Why you seem excellent is because of your 8 AP test scores (I dont take AP but I know what is good and whatnot haha). But your SAT could be higher for MIT (over 2300), so I guess youre in same dilemma as me in the 2200 :smiley: Chance me back?

<p>I think MIT is a high reach. Upenn, Duke and Berkley are mid/low reaches. The rest are matches. You have good scores and course rigor, but there isn’t really anything that makes you stand out. In your essays, try to highlight something about yourself that sets you apart from everyone else with similar scores, ECs and course rigor.</p>
