<p>I would say
Stanford: up in the air
NYU: in
UC Davis: in
UC Berk: probably
UCLA: likely
UCSD: in
Cornell:in</p>

3

<p>even with the poor junior year? it was a pretty sudden change but im hoping my SATs can somewhat change that. Also my first semester senior year is looking pretty good (i know UCs dont see)</p>

4

<p>Sweet! Thats great news. Any more feedback greatly appreciated.</p>

5

<p>Stanford: high reach
NYU: low reach
UC Davis: in
UC Berk: high match
UCLA: match
UCSD: IN
Cornell: high match</p>

<p>pls chance back

<p>Thanks. Looking for some more replies plleeaasseee.</p>

<p>Also, does “high match” mean that I have a good shot of getting in? And what about “match”, “low match”, “low reach?”</p>

<p>Thanks, sorry for the dumb questions</p>

7

<p>Stanford: doubt it (SAT score really isn’t “high” enough to make up for your junior year, IMO, unless your essay explains what happened really well)
NYU: Stern? super reach. If not, a “reach”, but a school that would most likely accept you.
UC Davis: absolutely in
UC Berk: match
UCLA: match
UCSD: in
Cornell: maybe</p>

8

<p>Oh sorry, umm I am not applying under Stern. I might go undecided. Also what does “match” mean? Does that mean a good shot or what?</p>

<p>Thanks guys</p>

9

<p>Match means you’re a good fit for the school, so yeah, good shot/relatively safe.</p>

<p>If you guys could chance me back, I’d appreciate it.

10

<p>All except standford (this is a reach for you)</p>

<p>all UCs, I say, ur in
NYU…I say it’s a match for you</p>

11

<p>Is the family member who went to Cornell a parent or a sibling? If not, I think Cornell is a big reach, as is Stanford. The issue, obviously, is your junior year grades. I don’t know enough to express an opinion about the UCs.</p>

12

<p>thanks guys.
yeah hunt, brother goes to cornell</p>

13

<p>yay i got rejected from stanford early :(</p>

14

<p>im in the exact same situation as u man…messed up junior year x[</p>

<p>sorry to hear bout stanford. but i got deferred from my school (which is basically like a nicer rejection :)) so i know how u feel.</p>

<p>cornell: reach. having a sibling there isnt as good as having a parent/grandparent there =[
UC davis: in
SD: match
LA: reach. doesnt matter how high your SAT is if your UC gpa is 3.77.
berkeley: bit of a higher reach than LA. same reason
NYU: not stern? then i’d say match; but be prepared to pay a lot to go there x[</p>
