Have I aimed too high?

Did you apply to only those 4 schools?

I disagree with the percentages given…sorry! I think if you were rejected at CMU engineering early (CMU had 30% increase in applications just this year) then Brown and MIT will be extremely difficult, and CMU-SCS is harder than CMU engineering (don’t know how higher II’s will affect) so that too will be tough. Of course you do have a chance, who knows, but I wouldn’t count on any of these 3.

On the plus side RPI’s an excellent school, just less selective, and I think you’re definitely in there.

Good luck.
