<p>wow i'd say you have excellent chances at all of these schools, great sats and stories, try to make that shine through in your applications, the personal accounts really make your app. good luck finding out! you have all the stats, just hope the chips fall in the right places!
chances?</p>
<p>MIT - reach
UChicago - match
Stanford - reach
Harvard - reach
Princeton - reach
Columbia - low reach
Dartmouth - low reach
Yale - Reach
UC Berkeley - match
Brown - low reach
Cornell - match</p>
<p>you have very little holes in your application if any. as long as your recommendations and essays are strong, you will have a great shot. but, as with any school like MIT, it is a crap shot. </p>
<p>good luck with your EA decisions today. i know that MIT comes out at 9, and UCHi mails very soon, if not already mailed</p>
<p>hey guys. thanks for all the support and encouragement. i got deferred from mit and chicago. I was a little surprised about chicago as I was pretty sure i'd get in but so far no one from my school has gotten into stanford/mit/chicago which sucks because we yearly have 10 people go to those schools :(
crap another 3 months :/</p>
<p>Ahhh I just realized that I applied to all of these schools with financial aide. I didn't think this would cause a problem earlier but will this drastically hurt my chances of getting into these schools???</p>
<p>Alrighty I just heard back that I have candidacy for Berkeley and UCLA Regents Scholarships so I guess these schools were safeties after all. Now I just anxiously await another one and a half months for the private schools :/</p>
