<p>I think looking at the acceptance rate, as well as comparing your SAT’s vs. the mid 50% for the school would be 2 indicators to help determine how likely acceptance would be. Yes, in my opinion, your list looks like you have your bases covered. You have a great range of schools AND you have already thought about the order of preference if you got into all of them. I think it’s just a waiting game now… do you have any words of wisdom on what you would do differently up until this point. BTW i bought a book for my d about engineering professions. It’s called “Is There an Engineer Inside You?” by Celeste Baine.</p>
