<p>My recommendations are most likely very good, my essays are alright, and I go to a school focused on math, science, and research.</p>
<p>What do u think my chances are for the schools I listed?</p>
<p>MIT - high reach
Caltech - high reach
Princeton - high reach
Cornell - mid reach
University of Michigan - low reach
Stanford - high reach
Carnegie Mellon - which school?</p>
<p>In all honesty, you’ll probably be rejected by most of these schools due to a lack of ECs. Academically you’re pretty strong, but your course load isn’t extremely impressive. Your ACT is good, but the same is true with the vast majority of applicants to these schools. If I were you, I personally wouldn’t bother with MIT, Caltech, Stanford, and Princeton, but if you’re hooked you could get in. CMU, Michigan, and Cornell are all possible, Michigan in particular.</p>
<p>Unless you’re a recruited athlete, with your lack of EC’s, most of these schools are probably out of your reach. Every serious applicant to these schools has similar scores to you and extracurricular activities to boot. </p>
