<p>UPenn and Cornell are high reaches even with your great stats.
i think for UPenn, it mainly comes down to how much passion you display.
JHU is a mid/low reach.</p>

<p>as for everything else, i think you're fine.</p>

<p>you're in great shape!
i envy you posting your last chances thread!
i can't wait when i get to post my last tooo!!</p>
