<p>Please note: I applied to some of these colleges last year but I decided to take a break and establish my own business. I got rejected by the 3 Ivies I applied to last year because my stats were a lot lower- I wonder if my rejections last year will affect this year's decisions?</p>
<p>Feel free to be honest and realistic.</p>

<p>First of all I dont like the title you have written for this thread… I mean you have near perfect SAT scores and GPA and great EC’s and still you are feeling hopeless :S… weird</p>
<p>anyways you are a very strong candidate and you’ll get into a few ivy’s for sure*
*most probably</p>
<p>I would say they are all difficult, ranging from Georgetown, etc. being high matches/low reaches and the ivies obviouslt being reaches for everyone. Good luck.</p>
<p>Thanks for chancing me. The majority if not all the schools you have listed are very difficult to get into given the prestige of the schools. However, imo your stats are good enough so that you would at least get into two of the schools you listed.
Good Luck</p>

<p>it kind of hurts your chances that you didn’t take any AP classes junior year. Also, if your B’s were in AP classes senior year, that also hurts you. Still, you’ll get into a few of those schools you listed.</p>

<p>Need some hooks as well.</p>
<p>BUT take this with a grain of salt- I am a pessimist (freely admit to it) and need to be 124% sure of something before I believe. This being said, you have a GREAT chance at Duke and a really nice chance of getting into the engineering-focused Princeton (I picked two favorites from the entire list).</p>
