<p>You’re a good applicant to a lot of schools, wilde, but your GPA will crush you in admissions at some of the more difficult schools. I’d say this:</p>
<p>KEEP
Babson College (If you’re interested in business, otherwise cut it. You’ll likely get a large scholarship)
Boston College
Bowdoin College (great liberal arts choice)
Emory University
NYU
two out of Carnegie Mellon, Tufts, USC, UofC, and Notre Dame (they are all reaches with that GPA, so it’s not worth applying to all five. I would suggest personally Notre Dame and CMU)
one of Villanova and Wake (both of these schools have strong connections; however, having both is slightly useless as they are both safeties)</p>
<p>CUT
Bard College<br>
Brandeis University<br>
Reed College<br>
3 of that group of five I mentioned earlier
1 of Villanova University and Wake Forest University</p>
<p>That narrows your list from 15 to 8. I took off Reed and Brandeis because you already have Bowdoin which is better on your list, Bard because it’s just too unknown to get you anywhere special, and the others because they were unnecessary reaches or just plain unnecessary. I would suggest you fix my ideas according to your intended major, but it seems like you want to go into a business related field so I did my list to that.</p>
