A total stranger verifies that you’re competitive.
The thing is that you have great stats, but because your ECs are so impersonal, you’re only stats… Though you’d be given attentive consideration anywhere, I think you’re that kid that admission officers always describe as uncompelling. Of course, you have a chance to mitigate that through your essays, but I’m not sure what more this forum could give you that you don’t already know. That being said, congrats on your acceptances and I’m sure you’ll get into a few more more of your reaches.

that World History SATII is frankly much too low. Don’t send if you can avoid.

good luck!
