<p>I hope you applied to some safety schools in addition to those…</p>

<p>Probably a good chance at Wake Forest, Tufts, USC, and Wash U. Decent chances even at Hopkins and Duke. The UCs are hard to get into if you are out of state. The Ivies are just a crapshoot, as you noticed with your deferral from Cornell. That’s not to say you won’t get in, just don’t be surprised either way.</p>

<p>Yup I got into both of my safeties already, so that’s why I didn’t post them on here. Thanks!! Anyone else? Any responses much appreciated!!</p>

4

<p>Bump… :0</p>

<p>Anyone? Help appreciated!!!</p>

<p>Where’s the second SAT subject test?</p>

<p>Hey Calculusfan, Sorry to hear about your deferral from Cornell. Now onto chancing…Well, you’re GPA is stellar, ACT scores are decent, but you seem to be missing a subject test! Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe it’s a minimum of 2 subject tests for ivy schools. Other than that, you’re EC’s are interesting and refreshing! (I’m taking AP Deutsch too!). I think you’ll be a match for Wake Forest, Wash U, and Tufts. </p>

<p>JHU- Low Reach
UCLA- High Match (Out of State)
USC- Reach
UC Berkeley- Reach (OOS)
Wake Forest University- Match
Tufts- Match
Wash U: Match
Duke: Reach
Ivies like hopeful360 said, are unpredictable! I wish you the best of luck though.</p>

<p>Duke, JHU, Ivies - low/mid Reaches</p>

<p>The rest are matches.</p>

<p>might look at Holy Cross-top25 LAC 1 hour from Boston. HC has JAN15th application due date and meets 100% of demonstrated financial need. Holy Cross has very nice campus and deep irish heritage(Irish dancing).</p>
