<p>I think I’ve seen you before here on CC Chances.</p>

7

<p>You are a top student. Cream of the crop.</p>

<p>I think you will get into UC Irvine, UCSD, and Johns Hopkins.</p>

<p>(I am not familiar enough with Caltech or USC to guess.)</p>

<p>The others are reaches for you because they are reaches for everyone. Hard to predict who they will accept. You have a better chance than most. As a California resident, UCLA and Berkeley seem likely.</p>

<p>Sweet resume, man
alot of the colleges that will be your reaches are gonna be the ones who don’t love that critical reading you have</p>

<p>i’m the same way on the ACT tho haha (29 reading, 36 math)</p>

<p>so yeah
CalTech EA - lower reach
Stanford - mid reach
USC - in fa sho
UC Berkeley - low reach
UC Los Angeles good match
UC San Diego - high reach.. jk hahah safety

<p>The critical reading does stand out, the ECs are many but none is spectacular. Your rank is great but your school is unknown. I think Harvard, Stanford, Caltech are super-high-reaches right now. But who knows, maybe the recommendations will be glowing and your essays will be powerful. Good luck with the critical reading and work on those essays.</p>

<p>If you can get your CR up you will stand much betetr chances.</p>

<p>CalTech EA - reach
Stanford - reach
USC - match
UC Berkeley - match

<p>hey thanks everyone!!
i’m tryin to bring that Critical Reading up in this October’s exam; I hope everything goes well. I appreciate the time you all gave me!
how would a 720+ reading affect my chances? would it make them drastically bigger or only help a little bit?</p>

15

<p>do you think a college like CalTech cares about CR scores if they’re low??</p>
