<p>when people say u are a match to the school what are the chances u will get in give me a range and what is the percent for reach and slight reach </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>I can't account for everybody but in my opinion I would say a match school is "more-likely-than-not" (like 50-70%), a slight reach is "more-likely-not" (like 30-50%), & a reach is "not likely" (like 30% or less). For some schools you may have the numbers, but the schools are so selective it is nearly impossible to consider them anything but a reach.</p>
<p>I always considered it roughly something like this</p>
<p>Reach (15% or less)
Slight Reach (30% or less)
Match (50%)
Safety Match (70%)
Safety (85%)</p>
