Am I qualified for...?

Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>Okay, I’d like to find out where my qualifications land me on the university rankings. Here are my credentials:</p>

<p>ACT composite: 32
English: 34
Math: 35
Reading: 31
Science: 30
Writing: 10/12</p>

<p>Weighted GPA: 4.3
Unweighted GPA: 3.98</p>

<p>Class rank: 2/300 (at a decent public high school)</p>

<p>Took four AP tests last year, got three 5’s and one 4. Going to take another four AP tests next spring.</p>

<p>Member of track for junior and senior years. Also a member of two student organizations, with a low-key leadership role in one of them. 30 hours of community service in past year.</p>

<p>Now I’d like to know how far up the university rankings I can go. Here is a non-exhaustive, roughly ranked list:</p>

<p>Harvard/Yale/Princeton/Stanford/MIT
Columbia
UChicago
UPenn
Duke
Northwestern
WashU
Notre Dame
UC Berkeley
UMich
NYU</p>

<p>Given my credentials, which universities are out-of-reach, within reach, and likely acceptances for me? How far up do my qualifications put me? Consider the list above, but do reference others if you wish.</p>

<p>Harvard/Yale/Princeton/Stanford/MIT- all reaches (but they are all Ivies and MIT is practically Ivy level)
Columbia- reach (but more likely than HYPSM
UChicago- reach (make sure the essays are amazing)
UPenn- reach (less likely than Columbia)
Duke- low reach.high match
Northwestern- low reach
WashU- low reach/match
Notre Dame- match
UC Berkeley- reach (due to the LARGE number of applicants)
UMich- match
NYU-match</p>

<p>BTW, I feel like I’ve seen this exact thread before.

<p>I will only list the ones that are not reaches. BTW they are all reachable.</p>

<p>NYU: Match
Berkeley: Match/High match (depends on whether you’re full-pay or not)
UMI: High match (OOS)/Low match/Match (in-state)</p>
