Hey guys, after spending a good year (a year too many) looking at thread after thread (especially the ED and RD results) calculating my chances at some of the most highly ranked schools in the nation, I’ve finally taken the time to create this to see what the people of CC think of my chances. A little about myself, I’m a junior looking into Chem Eng.
Looking at HYPSM and a couple other Ivys like Columbia, Berkeley, Vandy, CalTech, and UMich (Dream is Stanford though)
Thanks for giving me your input and I’ll be glad to chance you back if you leave the link
