<p>Yo
I am applying to a **** ton of schools and I was curious as to my chances at admission. I was already deferred from Columbia ED and accepted at Uchicago EA (and I have a few safteys like fordham and northeastern that i was already accepted at) so I am reachin for the stars now...
SAT: 2400 (but on my 3rd try, so this is only impressive to score-choice schools)
SAT II: Chem=750 U.S.H=760 Math 2= 710 (yikes)
Rank: 2/270
AP Tests: 5 on USH, English, STAT, Chem, Biology
Awards: National commended scholar, yale book award, hobey baker award, a few other generic awards
EC= Captain of 2 varsity sports, started a table tennis club, a moderate amount (150 hours) of volunteering in a development program for children learning to skate, a few other generic things
Since i got into Uchicago, i would imagine my essays are at least solid, as are my recs</p>
<p>I know this is not that much to go off of, and that ultimately this **** is unpredictable, but how do I look for the following:
Cornell CAS, Upenn, Princeton, Dartmouth
Amherst/Haverford
Northwestern/Johns Hopkins</p>
<p>Of these schools, Princeton, Dartmouth, Amherst, Haverford, Northwestern, and JohnsHOPkins all accept score choice if that makes a difference...</p>
<p>thanks, and post a link so I can chance you back</p>
<p>I’d say Dartmouth, NWestern, and Johns Hopkins are high match/low reach. Princeton is a reach. Amherst and Haverford target? (not as familiar with these). If you got deferred from Columbia, you can get into Princeton though, don’t worry too much.</p>
<p>I think you legitimately have a good chance anywhere. Your grades and SATs couldn’t be better and your ECs are solid. Unfortunately, these schools are really unpredictable (like the Columbia thing) so don’t sweat it if you don’t get into a few but I can see you getting into about 60% of those schools. Good luck!</p>
<p>Looks good, I’d say Princeton’s a reach, but with your SAT score (since they score choice) and your GPA/ECs you look pretty competitive everywhere.</p>
