Chance Me / Match Me!

Hey guys,

  1. Transcript: Almost perfect GPA; 7 IB courses with demanding rigor - Mathematics HL, Physics HL
  2. Test scores: 1450 SAT composite (weak, I know, but pretty good given where I'm applying from)
  3. Extracurriculars with noticeable achievement; Started clubs, led them. Unique activities such as organizing TEDx. However no direct spike, activities are diverse.
  4. Academic interest: Computer Engineering.

I think my personal statement was good, evoked an intellectual curiosity image. No hooks however.

Please chance me for : stanford, penn, cornell, tufts, and northwestern.

Thank you :slight_smile:

My guess is:
Tufts: accept
Cornell: idk I was just rejected with a 34 ED
Northwestern: watilist
penn: waitlist/reject
stanford: reject

If you’re serious about Tufts, finances are not a consideration, and you won’t live your life wondering “what if?” with respect to the other schools, I’d think seriously about applying ED2.

The others are reaches for everyone.
