<p>Rice - Moderate Reach</p>

<p>Stanford & MIT - Try it...why not? But don't expect too much...</p>

3

<p>aww please respond</p>

4

<p>ur scores are extremely low for the schools listed, ur rank might help u but the scores weight a lot to adcoms as well. even though u have AA on ur side, schools like MIT and stanford are still reaches.</p>

5

<p>one more shot</p>

<p>I already know its a low chacne for Stanford and MIT</p>

<p>ANYONE CHANCE ME FOR RICE ITs my #1 choice right now.</p>

6

<p>Rice is basically just as hard as Stanford.</p>

7

<p>ide say u have a chance at rice</p>

8

<p>MIT: Reach
Stanford: Reach
Rice: Slight Reach
Texas: Match (oos)
Georgia Tech: Match (oos)</p>

<p>Are you in state for Texas or Georgia Tech? If you are, your odds would increase.</p>

9

<p>MIT: Reach
Stanford: Reach (but try it)
Rice: I would say a slight reach u never really know my friend got into rice with similar scores!!
Texas: match
GA Tech: Match</p>

10

<p>MIT has a reputation of being just brutal on its undergrads. Are you sure you want to go there? Sure, it is a great place to be from, but ...</p>

11

<p>I know MIT is tough but I really liked where it was located and how tough it was. However I really think that Rice if I got into Rice it would be the place I would go.</p>

12

<p>You're black, so your chances are increased substantially. Not that you'll get in, maybe you will. Just try man. </p>

<p>"you miss 100% of the shots you dont take"</p>

<p>Agreed. There was a kid last year here. Don't know if he was truthful or not, but if he was...got a 1650 SAT, Hispanic, in at MIT. So, why not? You try it. Don't expect a whole lot, but try.</p>
