<p>Hey guys, I was just wondering if I have any shot at getting into Princeton, Cornell or UPenn. My match schools are looking like BU, Northeastern, GWU (don't really know why), while my safety is Rutgers. So what do you think my chances are at these institutions?</p>
<p>I plan on doing engineering.</p>
<p>I go to a very competitive private high school in New Jersey.</p>
<p>I guess I'll just list some stuff and you can let me know if you need anything else to tell me my chances.</p>
