How does my list seem?

College Search & Selection
1

<p>So after weeks of pondering I think I arrived at my near-final list of colleges to apply to. I was just wondering if anyone on CC could comment on the list and maybe give suggestions.</p>

<p>I have a pretty good GPA: 101.19, school only does weighted and am ranked in the top 5%.
SAT scores are 760M 700CR 760W from first time taking it in October (Retaking it Saturday but not expecting much increase. Just aiming for the 800 on Math to hit the 1500 M+CR score)</p>

<p>SAT IIs: 800 Math 2, 780 Physics, 780 US History</p>

<p>ECs are pretty good and essays are pretty good and I'm Asian with family income of about 100000 before taxes with a twin brother. Won't get into other details since i'm not trying to make this a chance me thread.</p>

<p>Anyways here's the list and how i see each school right now.</p>

<p>Brown University ED (Reach)
UMich Ann Arbor, Ross pre admit EA - (Match~High Match)
Villanova EA - (Safety/Low Match)
Northeastern EA - (Safety/Low Match)
Binghamton SUNY EA - (Safety/Low Match)</p>

<p>Regular Decisions
Reaches: Stanford, Princeton, Columbia, Carnegie Mellon (SCS/Tepper), Cornell U (Engineering/ Arts & Sciences), UPenn - Jerome Fischer
Match: University of Rochester</p>

<p>I'm planning on majoring in Computer Science and also majoring/minoring in Business. I'm from NY btw.</p>

<p>Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t brown’s ED restrict you from applying EA anywhere else? Otherwise your list seems pretty accurate, except you may have a few too many reaches.</p>

3

<p>@Bparker nope, only SCEA / EDs they restrict you from. Non-binding EAs are accepted. </p>

<p>Also doesn’t it make sense for me to throw in several reaches for the RD when I’m applying to several safety/match schools for Early?</p>

<p>your gpa isnt high enough…</p>

5

<p>For which school? If you mean for the reaches… well thats why they are reaches :p</p>

6

<p>are you kidding me dude… i was joking… whats wrong with you… its over a 100…</p>

7

<p>Oh lol didn’t pick up on that. I mean it is weighted…</p>

8

<p>but in all honesty… i think you have very good shot… i mean it would help to know your ecs… i have been doing a lot of research… especially for princeton 1500+ cr+m increases your chances dramatically</p>
