<p>Nice profile, especially your EC’s.</p>
<p>Make sure to show them yourself. I can see you like sports. What else do you like? What do you read about? Why engineering? You need to make yourself stand out for these schools.</p>
<p>Ivies are tough reaches. Your SATs and grades could go up a bit to make them a bit surer, but they’re hard to guess about.</p>
<p>For improving SATs, working with a private Kaplan tutor, while expensive, can help a lot. I brought math up 80 points, critical reading up 60 points, and writing up 20 points. They help you focus on areas you need most help in and don’t waste time going over stuff you already are good at.</p>
<p>Have you done any leadership stuff? See if you can start a group or become its president/captain/leader. They always like that.</p>
<p>Also, do something extracurricular engineering-related. It will better show your interest. </p>
<p>SUNY Binghamton and Syracuse seem pretty safe.</p>
<p>I don’t know much about Lafayette and Lehigh, but Lehigh has great engineering. If you can stand out among all the engineering candidates there, you’ve got a good shot.</p>
<p>Someone I know got into Villanova and you sound around that level, a bit of a reach, but attainable.</p>
<p>Best of luck. I hope this helps. Thanks for chancing me. Peace.</p>
