<p>Wow! Terrific. You are not a reach anywhere. Anyone who says different I’d like to know why. Your diverse EC’s of drama and sports will put you on the top of the pile -Even at Yale.</p>

<p>Also to all you knuckleheads who believe Hispanics can’t get in on Merit. Check out his credentials. </p>

<p>It’s not like the schools I put in as being reaches were unrealistic either…</p>

<p>Cakley,</p>

<p>You seem quite qualified for all of these schools. My best friend received a 2230 on the SAT, had fewer ECs than you have, has the same ethnicity, had fewer APs, and a lower rank; he got into Harvard. There is no formula for admissions success, especially as there is a large amount of luck involved. With all that said, I’ll give you what I think for each:</p>

<p>Brown - You got a shot.
Yale - You got a shot.
Penn State - Safety
Duke - You got a shot.
UC Berkeley - - You got a pretty good shot.
UCLA - You got a pretty good shot.
UC San Diego - You got a pretty good shot.
USC - You got a pretty good shot.
Emory - You got a shot. (no idea, but I think if you got a shot with Yale, you do with anyone)
Northwestern - You got a pretty good shot.
Tufts - You got a pretty good shot.
Wesleyan - You got a pretty good shot.
Carnegie Mellon - You got a pretty good shot.
Purdue - Safety</p>

<p>Stats are good but ECs are a bit spread out. You’ll be able to make t to a few of those at least, even though Yale and Brown are a reach for everybody.

<p>obviously there is no predicting ivy admissions because every applicant will have stellar statistics, it just comes down to the little things. you have outstanding stats and with those stats alone, you have a solid chance at each ivy, and a great chance at every other school. but, you also have the hook of being a minority which gives you quite a leg up on the competition. while the ivy’s are essentially a crap shoot, i would bet on you getting in to all the other schools.</p>

<p>It seems that you have a pretty good shot at all of the schools, even without the “minority card” XD. You’ve already applied, right? Not sure what advice I can give then . . . but your Extracurriculars look good and with your academic record, I don’t think you’ll have any problems.</p>

<p>So . . . can you chance me?
