<p>Haverford -Unsure
Brown -High Reach
Penn -Reach
U Chicago EA -Low Reach
Emory -Low Reach
Georgetown EA -High Match
BC EA -High Match
Brandeis -Unsure
Penn State-UP -Safety
Maryland EA -Match
William and Mary -High Match
Richmond -Match
George Washington -Safety
BU -Safety</p>

<p>Personally, I’d eliminate Brown, Maryland (too similar to PSU), Brandeis, and either GW or BU. That would give you with a really good, diverse list of ten schools that seem to fit what you want.</p>

<p>Chance Back Please:

<p>hehe, we (my school’s jazz band) played your username…great song.</p>

5

<p>Yea, it’s definitely one of my favorite songs. It has a good mix of everything</p>

<p>I hate bumping, but it’s a necessary evil, i suppose. BUMP</p>

<p>Hey man, you know yourself best, so just pick the little things to narrow things down. Do you like football or bball better? City or suburbs? Like the beach? etc…obviously visit!!</p>

<p>William and Mary is in a pretty cool area…by busch gardens and virginia beach. great school too, i’d recommend it!</p>

<p>brown’s a high reach for everyone…chicago’s up there too…but you can be pretty confident about the rest.</p>

<p>ALSO, don’t apply EA for really tough schools! they’ve been rejecting a lot more kids recently that way… early action rejection rates are through the roof, especially in schools like that. unless, of course, you’re just dying to know and can’t wait, so that’s best for you :P</p>

<p>please chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/661484-chance-deferred-kid-ill-try-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/661484-chance-deferred-kid-ill-try-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>You are probably right about narrowing things down. I am just having trouble with it for some reason.
And thanks you for the info.</p>
