every other school reach</p>

<p>First of all, WOW! Your qualifications are incredibly impressive (as Genghis says, all that’s missing is a 2300 SAT, which really isn’t strictly necessary). Unfortunately, many of the colleges to look to apply to are increasingly selective and it is important to remember that regardless of how qualified an applicant you are (and you are!), Ivies and others like Chicago, Duke, and Georgetown are really cutthroat with admissions. With that being said, I’d say most are reaches, but I think Duke, probably Georgetown are matches for you.</p>

24

<p>20more, I didn’t ask for half of those schools; are you sure you replied to the right thread?</p>

25

<p>I think you have a good chance of getting into Duke and Georgetown.
I applied to Duke as well, feel free to take a look at my stats if that would help:</p>

26

<p>Thanks, I chanced you back!</p>

27

<p>What do you think about my chances at other schools despogirl?</p>

28

<p>Hmm, I’d say Columbia’s a fair shot too. The key is to make your essays sound like you really want to go to that school. I can’t say much about the others ones because I haven’t applied to those lol :)</p>

29

<p>Your EC’s are excellent, I expect that you will be accepted into at least half of these
Chance me please

<p>To be honest, all of these schools are reaches (M&T and MIT for sure – these two are practically high reaches to anyone applying who hasn’t cured cancer). You’re a pretty competitive applicant though so I bet you’ll get into at least two of the schools on your list overall.</p>

<p>Also, lol @ missionsan for saying Duke is the only reach on here (can’t tell if he’s joking or not). Good luck!</p>

<p>Make sure you retake your SATs or get a better score on the ACT. I got a 2260 on my third attempt on the SAT but only sent my ACT score which was a 36 composite after studying very long for it and taking it once. You don’t really need to overload on SAT 2s. Two or three of them would be fine. </p>

<p>The most important thing is to maintain all those great ECs and write good essays. Please please please I cannot stress how important the supplements and common app essays are. My ECs were not nearly as strong as yours but I spent like 40 hours on my essays and made it killer. Also applying ED to Columbia doesnt hurt either ;). </p>

<p>Everything should be within reach, even the ivies if you plan it out well. Good luck!!</p>

32

<p>Thanks for the inspiration sywang23! I’ve been studying for the ACT all winter break, signed up for the February ACT.</p>

<p>Bump 10 chars</p>

34

<p>You have good stats, but all the schools you listed are reaches or high matches for everyone who applies due to really low admittance rates. Make sure you also have more match and a for-sure safety school on that list!!</p>

35

<p>Thanks! GA Tech, Emory, and NYU are my safeties.</p>

36

<p>Just to make sure, can anybody comment on whether GA Tech, Emory, and NYU Stern are safeties for me or not?</p>
