<p>Hi, I already have an idea of where I want to apply for my reach schools (BU, NYU, Northeastern), but unfortunately I don't think I have terrific chances of getting in. I will have taken 7 AP's by my senior year, as well as 7 honors classes, and 2 or 3 classes through my local community college. I have a GPA of around 97 at the moment, but I think that will improve slightly by next year. I am in the top 15% of my class, but my rank is around 50, and I don't have great EC's. We haven't gotten our SAT results back yet, but I think I'm somewhere in the 1800's based on the psat. I'm really interested in political science, so I need some suggestions of schools that I would have a decent chance of getting into based on that information. I would prefer east coast, but that's not a necessity, it just has to be located in an urban setting preferably. Thank you in advance! </p>
