Hey ya’ll, I was wondering if you could chance me at my top choice schools and give me some recs on what else I could do
List (not in any order)

1. Cornell (Chance me for both ED and RD please)

2. Johns Hopkins (Chance me for both ED and RD please)

3. Tufts (Chance me for both ED and RD please

4. Columbia (Chance me for both ED and RD please)

5. Rice U (Chance me for both ED and RD please)

6. Northwestern (Chance me for both ED and RD please)

7. NYU

8. Boston University

The reason for all of those ED and RD chances is so that I can gauge whether or not I have a much greater chance at particular universities in ED as opposed to RD (please no rude comments)

Stats off the top of my head…

GPA 3.6 UW and like a 4.1 W (Im a junior at an extremeley competitive charter HS in Georgia)
SAT 2090 (710 CR, 700 M, 680 W)
SAT 2…world history 720

rank…its not great (Like top 20% but i dont know if i have to submit it…i dont think i need to, the low rank is because of a school transfer from a less competitive private school, that did not afford similar opportunities as my current school )
