<p>Well I think you can get into Georgetown and BC and most of those other schools pretty easily. Some safeties/other schools you might want to look into is Tufts, Bates, Bowdoin and others.</p>
<p>Um, I wouldn't consider Bowdoin, Bates, and Tufts safeties; maybe more along the lines of match schools.</p>
<p>aight ill look into those what about some of the schools that i mention above as far as match or reach i feel that mostly all of them except for 1 or 2 would be reaches?</p>
<p>matches... with a 1990 sat? reach/matches... but reasonable</p>
<p>yes i kno that seems low but with it would those schools still be mostly matches?</p>
<p>have you considered UCLA, UIUC, U of Iowa?</p>
<p>no too far away i live on the east coast</p>
<p>u of georgia... georgia tech? university of maryland? u of delaware?</p>
<p>would those qualify as safeties/matches/ or reaches??</p>
<p>depends if you<code>re applying to their honors college. if you lived in new york, i</code>d recommend binghamton.</p>
<p>all the schools that you guys are throwing out while they may be good i havent really heard that much about them they dont have the same name recognition as the ones that i mentioned in my initial post...does that mean that i was lookin a little too far out of my league and should try and stay away from the william and mary's and UVA's???</p>
<p>No you are not to far out of your league. I think you were accurate in where you thought you are. I am betting that if you apply to all of the schools that you listed and I listed, that you will get in to half of them. Your SATs are fine.</p>
<p>I<code>m sorry but I haven</code>t heard of WakeForest, W&M, and Nova until this post. How about Vassar?</p>
<p>are u kidding me wake forest great basketball team...william and mary like one of the first university ever in america......i really appreciate every suggesting schools to me but i would appreciate like a school by school break down even more eg.match/reach</p>
<p>wat do you wanna major in?</p>
<p>business something...mybe finance</p>
<p>UCONN!!! or Syracuse... those basketball teams!</p>
