<p>do you have any advice to make wharton and mit easier to get into? and what about harvard or stanford… are those just out of question?</p>

<p>thanks for your response</p>

<p>helllloooooooooooooo???</p>

<p>Those schools are all big reaches unless your HS sends many to top colleges. If you look at common data sets, most unhooked kids at those schools are at the very top of their classes. You are an ORM and that doesn’t help, but hopefully you’re from an underrepresented state. Raise your SATs and give them a try, but have some good matches as next year will be the hardest year in history at top colleges.</p>
