What do you mean by...Low Reach, Reach, High Reach, Match, and High Match?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi.
I've been around looking around chance threads and the terms, reach, High Reach, Low Reach, Match, and High Match are quite confusing.</p>

<p>It seems like Match is like...(80-90%) and High match is (50-70%) or something like that.</p>

<p>Can somebody clarify the terms for me please?</p>

<p>This might sound stupid, but I figure that those terms are qualified chances of admission based on personal stats versus a school’s selectivity. Thus, in order of increasing probability for acceptance:</p>

<p>High reach (pray, complete pagan rituals, donate millions in order to get in)
Reach (seriously work on those essays and hope with every fiber of your being that you have a sparkle that some admission officer sees)
Low reach (you have a chance if other people suck)</p>

<p>and I will admit I’m confused about match/high match</p>

<p>So it’s like
High reach-basically winning the lottery
Reach - very very unlikely. 10%
Low reach - unlikely. 30%</p>

<p>Like that?</p>

<p>My opinion: </p>

<p>“High reach”= 5% chance or less</p>

<p>“Reach” = 10% to 15% chance</p>

<p>“Low reach”= 20% to 35% chance.</p>

<p>“High match”= 40% to 50% chance</p>

<p>“Match”= 55% to 70% chance</p>

<p>“Low match”= 75% to 90% chance</p>

<p>“Safety”= 95% chance (almost a sure thing)</p>
