Please help me out, I will appreciate any honest intake. I have already been accepted to Miami and Penn State so I will not be concerned with any brutally honest answers! Thank you

I think you nailed it.

I’d say Elon is likely but would have been a yes if EA.

Then Syracuse.

Clemson to me is a reach - because you’re in the 5th decile and 80% of their kids are in the top 2 - but your score holds weight there - so you never know.

I think your reaches are all high reaches.

You’ve got great acceptances already!!

Good luck.

Thank you for your intake, I did indeed get rejected from Clemson but they got a ton of applications this year so I am not that surprised. If you don’t mind, do you know the applicants situation or general admission trend for the rest of the schools I still have to hear from? I know Lehigh is trying to expand its student body and will probably accept more than usual if I am correct, but anything else you might know. Once again thank you so much for your help and words of luck.

I guessed (right) on Clemson.

I can’t imagine with your rank you’ll get into Lehigh - it’s tougher than Clemson. Even if they expand, they won’t necessarily dilute. But again, only they matter, not me.

You’re already into two fantastic schools - don’t worry.

Good luck.
