<p>Are all Ivies considered ‘reach’ simply because of the element of ‘you never know’?</p>

<p>Or that Ivies get thousands of applications with 3.7/2100 and better…</p>

<p>Are you really applying to 21 schools? Narrow your list down…</p>

<p>Anyways, regarding your chances. For top schools you are slightly below average academically, but much below average EC wise. You are definitely lacking ECs. Tha twill make top schools hard to get in to.</p>

<p>If you want a non sugar coated answer, you have like no ECs, which are very important. Even with amazing essays and letters of rec most of these are reaches. You should add some safety schools to your list and take off at least 12 of your reach schools. No one needs this many reach schools.</p>

<p>@Picklechicken: what part of “research with university” leads you to “weak EC’s”???
:wink:
R1 schools will love that (as they should).</p>

<p>Thank you MYOS1634. I guess they missed it. Nonetheless, MYOS1634 thank you very much the insight you provided me with earlier. I really appreciated that. Thank you again. :)</p>
