Thanks so much for your detailed insight! This definitely helped.

While I am aware that OSU is an excellent university, it is a bit on the larger side for my liking. I will definitely look more into it, but it also seems like they have a really big emphasis on college sports, which isn’t anything bad, of course, but it’s just not exactly CWRU. I’ll try to hold off on raising unrealistic expectations of Case as well.

Also, I don’t know if it’s just me, but U Chicago definitely seems like a long reach. Just based on their ACT range, they have 33-35. I consider a college like Barnard to be a little more feasible as a reach, with it’s 31-34 ACT range and really cool-looking ‘Neuroscience and Behavior’ major.

I’m aware that Barnard also has its caveats, but I think it’s just a little more plausible.

Thanks for your encouragement and advice! Please consider following up on this
