I have a relative that works at Johns Hopkins</p>

<p>JHU: Reach
Tufts: Reach</p>

<p>get ur sat up.</p>

<p>both are reaches</p>

<p>Would it help at all if I apply ED to any of them?</p>

<p>^Yes, not a lot :/</p>

<p>Are these schools very far reaches for me? My counselor told me I was above average SAT for Hopkins but my gpa was very low. I also was told on the Tufts tour that they don’t differentiate between ED and regular, so I think I’ll apply regular so that my first semester grades will be included in my gpa. Also, does having a relative that works at Hopkins help me?</p>

<p>What’s your problem with Carnegie Mellon or UIUC?</p>

<p>Anyhow, if you have a relative that works at JHU and none at Tufts, better ED at JHU. But JHU is a pre-med nest…</p>

<p>Do I have a chance at Carnegie Mellon for Computer Science/Engineering?</p>

<p>CMU: Reach (it’s reachable)</p>

<p>How much will having a family member who works at JHU help me if I apply ED?</p>
