(these are the schools that dont require sat 2, or the ACT)</p>

<p>i'm a rising senior and my stats are: </p>

<p>GPA:3.5 (IB diploma until gr 11), BUT in gr 12, I will be taking all regular courses. aiming for gpa of 4.0, all courses over 95%</p>

<p>SAT:2100 CR:630 M:800 Wr:670</p>

<p>(my school does not rank) approximately top 10-20%</p>

<p>lots of EC including MVP in volleyball gr9, setting city record in track and field, tons of volunteer hours.</p>

<p>assume that essays, and recommendations will be good.</p>

<p>:):):) thank you for your help :):):)</p>

<p>...Please try to cut some first. 25 is a bit excessive, and it would take a long time for us to accurately chance you for each one. </p>

<p>You need develop a clearer view of what you want before you can determine the best safeties, matches, and reaches.</p>

#3

<p>That said, I'll be nice and start you off with some examples (approximate though, I'm guessing)..</p>

<p>SAFETIES:
-Minnesota
-Tulsa
-Case Western
-American
-SLU
-Washington
-Baylor
-SMU</p>

<p>MATCHES:
-Pepperdine
-GWU
-Lehigh
-Rochester
-Illinois
-Texas
-Miami
-UWM</p>

<p>REACHES:
-Notre Dame
-USC
-UNC</p>

<p>With your stats, 2 safeties, 3 matches, and maybe 4 reaches would be good. Since you're pretty much guaranteed in at safeties, you don't need more than a couple. So a few solid matches, and a handful of reaches should be the bulk of your list.</p>
