<p>Thanks flopsy, beginning. I would appreciate opinions on the others schools as well (Purdue, GaTech, MIT, Cal-Poly, RPI, Mich-AnnArbor, and Illinois-UrbanaChampaign)</p>

<p>the schools you just listed are basically all safeties, except for UMich which is still a safe match if nothing else.</p>

<p>oh, didn't see MIT there. That's probably a slight reach.</p>

<p>Thanks. I guess I dont feel like the private schools are a slight reach, but a far reach because of my weak EC's.</p>
