<p>IU-safety.
The list looks pretty accurate to me.</p>

<p>thank you. im hoping for responses like those cause it took me a lot of time.</p>

<p>You don’t list any ECs but I assumed they were decent.</p>

<p>Reaches are accurate. Northeastern would be a low reach.</p>

<p>Matches are somewhat accurate. Maryland isn’t really a match, it has an average 4.1w gpa and a 1230 SAT is below average. American is the same as Maryland. Boston U shouldn’t be any easier than Northeastern.</p>

<p>Safeties are accurate. IU might not be a safety because the Kelley Business School is very well regarded.</p>

<p>Try to get the SAT score up, particularly the CR section.</p>

<p>Why nt look at baruch? It’s a great business school, if you can get you cr up to 670, you can have a shot at its macaulay honors program which gives free apple laptop, full tuition, and many other benefits. I strongly recommend you check it out, if yo are not admitted into macualay, you will be considered for their local baruc honors, and f not, it’s still a gr8 school, only 5700 tuition in state a year, remember its a GREAT BUSINESS SCHOOL. Avg gpa for honors was over 90s, and sat math and reading combined 1420 or I heard they just like a 1320. They range from 1260-1400. I would again STRONGLY RECOMMEND you look it up: macaulay honors and baruch college. Look up macaulay honors first</p>

<p>I do not think Northeastern is that of a reach. Definetely not the same class as Georgetown.
BU may be high match to low reach.
Other than that, pretty accurate to my eyes.</p>

<p>You have a strong GPA for those reaches, but your SAT is a little low. Try to bump it up to at least 2000. Besides that, your list looks very accurate.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance back? :slight_smile:

<p>thanks guys. Do i have a realistic shot at any of my reaches because my top 3 schools are Lehigh, Northeastern, and GW in no order</p>

<p>I think you have a good variety there.
I agree with your groupings, though I would say IU would be more of a match based on your SAT score. I suggest that you retake your SAT to increase your chance. You have a good GPA and I assume that you have good EC’s…I don’t think you will have much problem getting into these schools. Good luck! </p>

<p>Chance me, <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1537596-chance-senior-top-tier-schools-ill-chance-you-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1537596-chance-senior-top-tier-schools-ill-chance-you-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Overall, you have a good list of schools in my opinion. You could get into GW if you get perhaps a 1950+ in my opinion. I’m not too sure about Lehigh, but I feel as if you could get into GW if you get the score I mentioned. Your safeties are accurate and so are most of your matches. BU could be a low match in my perspective. Anyway, try to get the SAT up by a little and you’ll be in great shape! Good luck!
Chance me back?: Chance me (I’ll Chance Back!!) JHU, GW, NYU, BU, UVA,UConn, Wake Forest, and Brown</p>

<p>I think you should work on your SAT honestly. Your list is pretty accurate, but you would see a dramatic shift upwards in your chances if you could get that up.</p>

<p>thank you guys for the great input. you guys are really helpful and ill be sure to chance you back. What about northeastern though?</p>

<p>Your list looks great, but if you want to study finance, I’d definitely recommend getting that SAT up. Shoot for at least a 700 in math since finance and math go hand in hand and try some subject tests to strengthen your application a bit. Other than that, your list looks very accurate and the time you spent doing this was well-spent. </p>

<p>thank you very much for the input.</p>

<p>Seems pretty accurate to me! Although I’m not sure if Northeastern would be a reach for you. I think it could be a high match. And I think American could be a high safety as well. I’ve had friends who had far worse specs than you get in with no problem.
