<p>Her involvement, SAT scores, research internships, awards and overall well-roundedness are fantastic. Reading her achievements left me flabbergasted, so she should definitely apply to her dream schools. She is an amazing student who moreover demonstrates the perserverence and initiative that those schools want.</p>

<p>I believe that she has a great shot for every college listed. She is up to par with most of the top applicants for the ivies. The most competitive colleges will be a moderate reach. As for the others, she is more than likely guaranteed a spot. Her test scores are extremely strong and the extracurriculars are competitive. Her cumulative GPA seems a bit low, however, its hard to tell without knowing the weighed GPA and exact class rank.</p>

<p>Low to Moderate Reach:
Brown
MIT
UPenn
Princeton
Yale
Harvard</p>

<p>Match:
Cornell
Berkeley
Johns Hopkins
Northwestern
Washington </p>

<p>Safety:
Emory
Boston University
UConn</p>

<p>In my opinion, there is a great chance that she will get into at least a couple of the moderate reach colleges. I know a few people with much less competitive transcripts that have been admitted to both Brown and UPenn. By the way, is she not submitting her SAT scores?</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Please chance me:
