Chance for hyps?

<p>Photography is a less common EC.</p>

<p>You should definitely write National Merit Semifinalist and other impressive achievements, even if you consider them “generic.” Getting high PSAT scores is not generic and even if it is at some college, you can only benefit from it.</p>

<p>harvard- highish reach, princeton- reach, stanford- highish reach, yale- reach, upenn- low reach</p>

<p>You still have better chances than the majority of people. The only reason all are reaches is that Ivy League admissions are so random that it’s very hard to predict accurately; you are certainly qualified but there’s some luck or hidden factors involved too.</p>

<p>Strong scores fall right into the HYPS range
very unique EC’s for an Asian male, should definitely help you stand out</p>

<p>Good chances all around
glm</p>

<p>do you sell pentax equipment :P</p>

<p>those schools are all tough for everyone. try to have some other safeties.</p>

<p>HYPSMCCCP: You might get into some of them but they are reach schools</p>

<p>All those schools will have RD acceptance rate below 10%.</p>

<p>what does “RD” mean?</p>

<p>RD means regular decision
HYPS are reaches for everyone, but you definitely have awesome ECs and honestly I think you’ll get into at least one of them!
Duke - Low reach (but this school is also a reach for everyone)
UChicago - High target/low reach
Columbia - Low reach</p>

<p>Basically all these schools are incredibly difficult to get into, but I’m pretty sure you’ll get into at least of a couple of them. Your ECs really show passion and I’m sure you’ll stand out!</p>

<p>Good chances! I think you have a shot! Good luck!</p>
