<p>I'm struggling to come up with safety schools ---</p>
<p>These are my stats:</p>
<p>4.0 GPA unweighted
rank: 1 of about 400
2400 SAT/36 ACT
800 math IIC
790 U.S. History
790 French
780 Chem
5s on seven AP tests
very solid recommendations, extra curriculars, etc.</p>
<p>I'm a white girl and I go to public school in Nevada. I applied early to Yale -- other top choices are Harvard and Princeton. Any good ideas for safety schools?</p>
<p>maybe like western nevada community college? still might be a slight reach tho</p>
<p>You're competitive basically anywhere. You need to tell us what you want in a school--location, size, atmosphere, special programs, etc. before we can tell you anything.</p>
<p>You are competitive everywhere...so it just depends on fit.</p>
<p>If you are interested in East Coast Schools - Boston College, Boston University, Northeastern. . . etc</p>
<p>BC, Lehigh, Wake Forest as safeties, maybe Tufts or Vanderbilt as targets/safeties?</p>
<p>This would be a good test of the existence of the Tufts Syndrome. Chicago, Duke, Cornell, Penn, and Georgetown would be decent backups to Harvard, Yale, and Princeton.</p>
