<p>I am not so sure about that. </p>
<p>First of all, I don’t think there’s any serious problem with 2250 if it’s 750/750/750. I stand by my earlier contention that it’s not about the top-line score, but rather all about the section scores.</p>
<p>And second, I don’t think the word safe belongs anywhere in a discussion of Ivy League (and their peers) admissions. The admit rates are often less than 10% (and often way less than 10% for unhooked applicants), and the number of highly qualified applicants who are denied far exceeds the number who are admitted.</p>
