I would guess that you get rejected from the Ivies on your list because of your unweighted GPA and your ACT score for an Asian male…Vandy is a low reach. Everything else is within reach and I’d expect that you get a decent number of acceptances :slight_smile: Chance me back? http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1939905-chance-me.html#latest
