<p>Incredible. I’d be absolutely shocked if you didn’t get in.</p>

3

<p>High match / low reach – just make sure your essays and recs are outstanding.</p>

4

<p>You seem like a great candidate</p>

<p>Holistically, you’re in. However, I didn’t see if you mentioned what school at georgetown you are applying to. I see FBLA participation so I might think McDonough or CAS Econ but I also see MUN and other political affiliations which would indicate SFS. You’re most likely in either way because you have such a broad range of good ECs and scores that are definitely in the top among applicants. However, that can also be somewhat of a downfall in itself- it can be too broad and the admissions committee might think that you aren’t focused enough. However, that’s just me being harsh (like you had encouraged haha). In actuality, I don’t see any reason not to call you a match for the school though. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Also, if you could chance me back, I’d really appreciate it!
