I think you have a very good shot at all of these schools. You have good stats and ecs.

Holy…??? I am an Asian Male and we have basically the same stats/number of awards/all that stuff. Our only diff. is I have one less A.P. but diff. scores but this is really funny lol.

I would say you are a reach–high or reach for schools like Wash U. maybe because we probably are not the only ones with these stats and I know Asians are usually known to have brilliant stuff and blah blah blah :wink:

Of course, maybe I’m completely wrong. Just saying what I think

good list of schools, might also look at Holy Cross-Jan 15th application date and HC meets 100% demonstrated financial need. Holy cross also has amazing business alumni network.

I honestly think that you have a really good chance at all of these schools! WashU and BC may be a low reach but I think your grades and ECs meet their standards :slight_smile: If you have a time, can you also chance me? :slight_smile:
