<p>You really show a dedicated interest in Computer Science and I think that looks great but your GPA… that’s going to be very detrimental.</p>

<p>Ivies are all reaches, awesome resume all around except for some of those grades/GPA… those will hurt. Otherwise, a pretty fair shot at each.</p>

<p>Would the mid year report GPA and rank be considered before a decision is made?</p>

<p>The only school you’ll definitely get into on that list is Rutgers.</p>

<p>All the others are reaches, some astronomically so.</p>

<p>The fact that you have a C+ and a D (in AP Chem, no less) and a bunch of B’s really kills your app at most of the places on your list.</p>

<p>I’d shoot lower if I were you, unless you’re content with going to Rutgers.</p>

<p>your grades are iffy but give it a shot! Have an amazing essay and you never know! Rutgers is an in though!</p>

<p>Rice Duke = Match
Rutgers = IN
Ivies=Reach</p>

<p>Chance me back please!

<p>That’s what I figured. The problem is that my SAT scores are better than my grades, but most places better than Rutgers will still reject me.</p>
