<p>almost all the ivy level schools you apply to are reaches, sorry but you need to improve your composite score. Alot of colleges do not even count the writing SAT and it will really hurt you in the process. As for the other schools, you should have a decent shot at all of them, the ones you listed that are not ivies range are mid to high matches imo, maybe a reach at NYU depending on the program</p>

<p>Hey desibeats!
First off, I’m sorry about your rejection. Admissions are such a crapshoot, I’m sure on another day things might have turned out differently. I didn’t apply anywhere ED, but I’m applying to SUNY Bing, Northwestern, and Tufts as well! Not that my opinion on this actually means much, but I would say you have very good chances at both SUNYs (not sure about macauney b/c I know nothing about it), Villanova, and BU, as well as decent ones at NYU and even CMU. After that (UChicago, NW, Cornell, Penn, Brown, and Tufts), there’s really no telling - it comes down to who happens to be reading your app, as well as your essay/recs. GOOD LUCK!</p>
