<p>^^Classic^^</p>

<p>hahaha wow okay totally forgot</p>

<p>Rejected stanford u early action probably because of crap essays</p>

<p>applying to these schools:
UPenn
Columbia U
John Hopkins (undecided major)
UCLA
UCSD
Rice U
Wash U in St. Louis
NYU
University of Nevada Reno- 7 year med program (allows only 6 people per year)</p>

<p>ok im sure you heard this a ton of times already but UPenn and Columbia are reaches for 99.9% of the people who apply there and you definetly are in that boat.</p>

<p>i would also put Rice and WUSTL as reaches but i do think youll get into one of these 4 reaches for sure.</p>

<p>Granted good essays i dont see you having many other problems save for the odd rejection from JHU and the fact that you are out of state from UCLA</p>

<p>good job in HS and good luck in college</p>

<p>Penn- Reach for pretty much everybody, but you have a decent shot
Columbia- See Penn
JHU- Match
UCLA- Should be in, but you are OOS
UCSD- See UCLA
Rice- Low reach
WashU- Reach, but unpredictable as of late
NYU- Match
Nevada- No idea, if what you say is true, then things don’t look too good.</p>

<p>Chance me please! <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/621725-took-risk-blew-any-hope-left.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/621725-took-risk-blew-any-hope-left.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Thanks for your insights!</p>

<p>bump pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasee</p>

<p>Valedictorian and your big improvement in the SAT will definitely help on most of your admissions, but here is what I thought:
UPenn- Reach, but thats for everybody!
Columbia U- Reach
John Hopkins (undecided major)-Medical program might be a reach, but if you are undecided, Low reach
UCLA-Maybe
UCSD- High Match
Rice U- High Match/ Low Reach
Wash U in St. Louis
NYU- Not sure
University of Nevada Reno- 6 people a year? Better make your essays amazing! Otherwise the school= Match, and the program= High reach</p>

<p>ECs are Solid and I see some passions in math and tennis. I see some minor hooks in the ECs, but thats just my opinion!</p>

<p>For Hopkins, you do not apply to a particular major, except for biomedical engineering. Otherwise, you chose your major when you are in attendance. It is a complete misconception that one must apply to a predetermined undergraduate medical program if he or she wants to go to med school later on. The choice is yours, once you are attending.</p>

<p>UPenn - High Reach, friend with similar stats got deferred from ED
Columbia U - High Reach
John Hopkins (undecided major) - Reach
UCLA - Definetly in, if not i’d appeal
UCSD - same as UCLA
Rice U - Match
Wash U in St. Louis - Match
NYU - Not sure
University of Nevada Reno- 7 year med program (allows only 6 people per year) - High Reach</p>

<p>Chance me please too <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/623674-chance-me-joint-medical-programs-other-privates-please.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/623674-chance-me-joint-medical-programs-other-privates-please.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>UPenn - reach
Columbia U - reach
John Hopkins - high match/low reach
UCLA - reach (just because of OOS)
UCSD - high match (same)
Rice U - low reach
Wash U in St. Louis - low reach, but tends to be unpredictable…
NYU - match
University of Nevada Reno- 7 year med program (allows only 6 people per year) - I’m not familiar with it, but if that few people get in, it’s definitely a reach.</p>

<p>Do you have some lower matches or safeties in mind? Your list is definitely top-heavy, unless you have some safeties that you just didn’t list…</p>
