<p>bump 10char</p>

<p>Willamette- safety
Wisconsin Madison- safety (is), match (oos)
Macalester (EDII)- match
Grinnell- low reach/ high match
Wesleyan- reach
Brown- big reach</p>

<p>being asian isn't really that bad especially if you're from a small midwestern town. if i were you i'd apply to a few more low reaches/ high matches like uchicago, carnegie mellon or case western.</p>

<p>Mediocre Asians are a very under represented minority at most schools. Should improve your chances considerably!</p>
