-NYU
-USC
-UCSB (the other UCs too)
-Boston U.
-U. Michigan
-Syracuse
-Tufts
*plus any other suggested schools would be nice- good schools that i would have a shot at.</p>

<p>Your GPA and SATs are just way too low for Tufts.</p>

<p>yeah, i already knew that was going to be a reach.. but, what about the others??</p>

<p>USC - Big Reach
Tufts - Big Reach
Michigan - Big Reach
NYU- Reach
UCSB - Reach
Boston U - Slight Reach
Syracuse - Match</p>

<p>Do you have a safety school? You mentioned other UCs, i'd add UCSC and UCR, both as Match/Safety type schools, although I wouldn't say you are guaranteed admission at either school.</p>
