<p>1330/2060 SAT
3.7 GPA with good strength of schedule
Top 5% in my class
Good ECs
Half Japanese</p>
<p>I am beginning to make a list and hoping to narrow it down to 12-15 ish and then finally apply to 6-8 ish
All I need to know is which will be stretches...</p>
<p>A quick check based on SAT scores (using info from their common datasets)</p>
<p>Connecticut
UCONN - 1st quartile</p>
<p>Georgia
Emory - 3rd quartile</p>
<p>Illinois
Northwestern - ELIMINATED</p>
<p>Indiana
Indiana University -1st quartile
Notre Dame - No information available</p>
<p>Maryland
Johns Hopkins - 3rd quartile
Maryland (College Park) 2nd or 3rd quartile</p>
<p>Massachusetts
Babson - No info available
Boston U - 2nd quartile
Boston C -No info available
U Mass (Amherst) -1st quartile
Northeastern - 2nd quartile</p>
<p>Michigan
U of Michigan 2nd or 3rd quartile </p>
<p>Minnesota
U of Minnesota (Twin Cities) 2nd or 3rd quartile </p>
<p>New York
NYU -2nd quartile
Cornell - 3rd quartile
Ithaca - 1st quartile</p>
<p>North Carolina
Davidson -2nd or 3rd quartile
UNC (Chapel Hill) - 2nd quartile
Wake - 3rd quartile

<p>Pennsylvania

<p>Wisconson
Wisconson (Madison) -no info</p>
<p>Washington DC
American 2nd or 3rd quartile
GWU - 2nd or 3rd quartile
Georgetown - no info found</p>
<p>These are based on SAT V+M, not W as many don’t like W.
1st quartile = probable safety
2nd quartile = probable match
3rd quartile = probable reach
(I say probable because colleges care about more than SAT V+M)</p>
<p>Normally I would not suggest safeties/reaches by SAT only, but you have a LOT of colleges on your list.</p>
<p>I would keep 2-3 reaches, 3-4 matches, and 2-3 safeties</p>
Emory - Decent Chances, need to show a lot of interest, if you really want to go here, I suggest doing ed 1 or ed 2. Also depends on the rigor of your high school schedule.</p>

<p>For the ones I said “low sat scores” for try getting a 1400+ on reading and math to be compietive, even if you do get above a 1400+, UPenn and Cornell are reaches…</p>
<p>Thanks…
Im hoping to get 700 each on Reading and Math in March…
I also have a legacy (dad) at Penn, which could help.
I am looking at these schools for business… so I might not apply to Penn as I dont think i could survive at Wharton.</p>
<p>Also what do you mean by show interest. I am very interested in BC… should I sign up for mailing list or what? I plan to visit soon.</p>
