Chances for Ivies, Duke, UVA etc.

<p>First of all, a 2290 is not “low.” I think you have a good shot early. I know someone who was accepted to Harvard (SCEA) and Yale (RD) last year and another person accepted to Princeton (I think RD). The Princeton person did have demographic factors going for him (URM, first generation) that likely helped a bit, but your credentials are much stronger. You’re pretty close to the Harvard/Yale person academically and in ECs. UVA should be a match and Duke a low reach/high match.</p>
