I’m a junior who will be applying to schools in the fall. I was hoping you all could help me evaluate my current list of schools and recommend some schools that I’m missing. I’m not gonna provide all my stats, but just know that a target school for me would be somewhere in the 15-25% acceptance range (ex. Georgetown, Boston College, USC). Also, I am white, a pacific islander, and hispanic. Thanks!
Interests:
Politics
Psychology
Economics
Business
Math
Maybe a minor in engineering
My list of schools (in order):
Stanford
Princeton
Cornell
Pomona (I have legacy)
Georgetown
USC
Penn State + Schreyer’s Honors College
Northeastern
American
Clark
How are we supposed to suggest schools when we don’t know any of your stats? Also your list of interests is pretty general. Unless you are specific, there is no point in recommending specific programs.
