<p>Hey! Kudos to your high ambitions, I’m actually just going to a Rice info session now. All your academics and ecs are looking great- just make sure you know why you want to go there and write a superb essay. Applying early can also help. I’d say super low reach :)</p>

<p>So low reach seems to be the consensus. My stats seem to be above average for the school. Why is this the case.</p>

6

<p>It’s a low reach because Rice is very selective, and if everybody went on stats alone and said it was a low match for you, they’d be lying. Rice gets tons of people who are qualified, so make sure you stand out. As far as a percentage, I have absolutely no idea. There are threads speculating the percentage chance for ‘low reach’ schools though. You could check it out. </p>

<p>All the best!</p>

<p>No one has a high chance of acceptance at the selective schools, because there are so many highly qualified people who want to get in, and the school only has so many slots that they can fill. You are no less qualified, but also no better qualified, than thousands of other applicants.</p>

<p>Apply to Rice, of course, but be sure that you also apply to back-up schools where you can be assured of admission because your grades and EC’s are higher than their average applicants.</p>
