Overall you’re a well qualified candidate for these schools. However, you should consider adding some real safeties since you’re an average (or below average) candidate as per published score ranges.
Good essays and strong teacher recs should help you get in. Good luck!
Chance me back?
@jermaine2 Northwestern is definitely not a “low match”… it’s definitely a reach. The acceptance rate for RD Northwestern will probably be about 7% this year. The previous commenter obviously doesn’t know much, and is just a high school student. His list again proves that chance me threads don’t really have any substance or basis in actual evidence.
@jaecha You might want to add Tufts to that list as well. 14% acceptance rate RD
GW is a definite match and great- my high school is on the campus and everyone seems very happy there.
Your act is on the low side, but you have very impressive extracurriculars. essays will be critical!
