Out of curiosity I just fed S23’s basic stats and profile and asked ChatGPT to come up with a list of reach, target and safeties schools he should apply to. I told it his interested his interested majors, his “slight bias” toward the northeast or mid-Atlantic and his intended post graduation goal. Other than test scores (including APs) and U/W GPA I told it about his top EC but didn’t list the rest. I didn’t say anything about urban, suburban or rural, class size, etc.

Feels like the “Targets” should be Reaches and the Safeties should be Targets. Otherwise it’s mostly the usual suspects.
