<p>what are my chances at…</p>

Rice
UC Berk
Duke

<p>Ok. Here’s what I think…</p>

<p>Stanford (maybe EA?) - reachhhh (SAT’s, hmmmm)
Upenn - match
Columbia - low reach
JHU - low reach
Northwestern - low reach
Cornell - reach
Rice - low reach
UC Berk - reach
Duke - match
Emory - match
Georgia Tech - IN</p>

<p>I say you get into 1+ of the reaches.
Strengths: EC’s (IMO), GPA
Weaknesses: SAT’s (for these schools)</p>
