<p>Don't know about the UC's & UMich but:</p>

<p>Boston U: probably in
CMU: high match
Tufts: just as much of a reach as Northwestern</p>

<p>UCLA and UCB might be slight reaches because of your UC GPA. But who knows, your excellent SAT scores might make up for it.</p>

<p>Sucks to be Asian man...</p>

<p>UCLA - You have a chance, although that GPA's not so hot. Work on a nice essay and it'll probably work out.
UCB - See above.
TUFTS - Tufts is always hard to predict.
Boston U - Good chance.
U MICH - May be a toughy because it's out of state.
Carnegie Mellon - Reach.</p>

<p>But then again, I'm just a kid.</p>

<p>Congrats on the SAT scores.
Good luck!!!!!!</p>

<p>sorry about northwestern g luck w. the other schools</p>

8

<p>Oh man, sorry you didn't in. Good luck with your other schools.</p>

<p>UMich is a slight reach/reach because of GPA...if you applied early enough you may get in.</p>

9

<p>haha okay thanks guys</p>

10

<p>sorry about northwestern, but good luck with the others! i think your main setback is your gpa, so LA and Berkeley might be a little out of your league. i'd say boston and carnegie are pretty good matches for you :)</p>

11

<p>:*( </p>

<p>I'm so sorry you didn't get accepted =(</p>

12

<p>Sorry about the rejection. You have strong stats. I think your family income played a part in the decision. It just puts you in a more competitive pool where a bunch of the brightest applicants are looking for the limited money.</p>

13

<p>Northwestern's tough... really depends on what you're applying for</p>

<p>CMU's the toughest for Computer Science... I'm from Pittsburgh, I know the school pretty well. It's not a very well rounded school.. really depends on what you're applying for,</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

14

<p>thanks guys</p>

15

<p>With the GPA, I see UCLA and Cal as far reaches.</p>

<p>flong:</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Match</p>
