<p>Are you affiliated with QuestBridge?</p>
<p>Yes, I’m a finalist this year.</p>
<p>what are you applying to at berkeley? L&S?
I’d say berkeley is a match. Stanford is a low reach. </p>
<p>Yes, when applying to Berkeley, chances are that L&S is where I will apply.
Stanford as a low reach?? I certainly was not expecting that. Do you know anyone that was accepted with similar statistics or a similar situation?</p>
