Hi guys!!! Please chance me for these colleges for RD! (For target to reach schools) course- engineering/ CSSchools
My opinion…this is a very top heavy list with NO real sure things for admission and a lot of schools with very very low acceptance rates.
Please read this thread before you apply to mostly reach schools. It’s older but a must read for anyone with a very top heavy list. The student in the thread was a NMF, class val, excellent ECs, excellent LOR and he didn’t get accepted anywhere his senior year if high school. Read the whole thread!

Little did I imagine that one year later, not only would I still be posting about the progress, but an entire cyber family on College Confidential would still be going through it with me.

I’m re-telling it here by way of my own original posts and those of other CC posters whose advice was so vital to the journey.
Thanks to all of you!
