<p>All reaches. You might get int one of those four if you’re lucky. EC’s are phenomenal, but your academics are kinda average. 3.8 is prolly fine in your case since you’re 7/350 in rank. Get your scores up too if you can. </p>

<p>Your EC’s are fabulous and definitely set you apart big time. Your rank is great too and your ACT, while awesome, is not quite up to the standards of those schools. No matter how much you improve though, theyre still all reaches for everyone so keep an open mind in case things dont work out. Chance back?</p>
