<p>Columbia is a high reach. Your past CU experience may help, and the recommendation would definitely help. However, I don’t see any way unless you bring up your SAT. They’re not comparing it to other people at your school; they’re comparing it to other APPLICANTS, and your verbal score is below the middle 50% range for Columbia students. So study hard and bring it up! Shoot for 2200 at least. Don’t retake it over and over, but one more try will probably help.</p>

<p>Good stats for sure, SAT especially. Columbia seems like it might be tough, but who knows? Its a crapshoot for anyone. The rec should help. Cornell is also tough, but I say its 50/50. John Hopkins you can make, same with Tufts. MC is a slight reach. UofV youre in. Copper Union in. Boston University a slight reach. Stony Brook easy, same with UB.</p>

<p>First of all, I have no idea what your title means, just say Chance or something like that next time. </p>

<p>Second, it doesn’t matter what the rest of your school does in terms of SAT, my school’s the same, a crappy public school with half the class attending community college, but I’m looking at Ivy League. You have to do the same, if you’re looking at top schools your score should be higher. Try getting each section above 700.</p>

5

<p>I will try to take the sat in October and aim for 700 or above for each section</p>

6

<p>whoever said that Boston U is a reach for this fellow is either a moron or a boldfaced liar.</p>

7

<p>lmaooo jacket is saying BU>Cornell, JHU, TUFTS, CMU, U of V
danng im going to BU</p>

8

<p>you are impressive in ur local context, but be warned that in college you will finally be competing with many students much stronger than you. If you are ok with that idea, go for the cornell or tufts, just make sure that you aren’t going in over your head.</p>

<p>that said, ur in at the bottom 3 schools on ur list…the rest are reaches, but not totally outrageous…</p>

9

<p>That’s what i think, i guess if i bring up my sat score to a 2150 or above… will the middle 6 schools be a slight reach for me???</p>

10

<p>Like I said before, having no AP classes whatsoever may be a problem for you considering many other students will have taken AP and IB classes.</p>

11

<p>Take off CMU, Cornel and Columbia and this will be a good list for you</p>

12

<p>why do u want me to take off CMU???</p>

13

<p>SAT scores low, no APs will make it difficult for you.</p>

14

<p>second what shawntang say</p>

15

<p>most schools will understand your lack of Ap’s when they see the school does not offer them, the school sends a report of what they offer students with your transcript. if you liekt hese schools then apply, shock all of thema nd have the last laugh, admissions isn’t all about numbers and many people take the numbers overly seriosuly, there would be no middle 50 without a lower 25.</p>

16

<p>In my opinion, every student’s situation is different, u can’t judge me by these APs and SATs… but i have to score CR above 700, otherwise, i have to take the TOEFL as a requirement…</p>

17

<p>Columbia University-reach
Cornell-reach
John Hopkins-reach
Tufts -high match
mellon carnegie-reach
university of Virginia -reach
Cooper Union-i dont know
Boston University-match
Suny0 stony brook-low match
SUNY buffalo-low match</p>

<p>im not being mean witha ll those reaches. the schools are reaches for most everybody</p>
