<p>wow, amazing SATs!
honestly, i think you have an amazing shot at Penn
in at Cornell
in at Georgetown
in at Vanderbilt
hah NYU! in!
i’m not really familiar with case western…
and most likely in at Northwestern!</p>
<p>well i’m no ad.com., but a 2230?? pretty top-notch. and you have good ECs too. i’d be surprised if you got waitlist. especially at vanderbilt and georgetown.
i know people with lower stats who are in.</p>
<p>No way in hell you’re sure to get into Penn. The class of 2013 there only comprises of 1% of people who were not in the top 10% of their class, though you might be an exception this year due to the circumstances you had to overcome in your freshmen/sophomore year.</p>
<p>OP is a URM + SATs & ECs strong enough. Most/ many of these schools will forgive the first 2 years
Penn SAS: reach for everyone, but URM helps a TON!!! at Penn. Trust me, I know some stories.
Cornell Human Eco: i fit in well here: high match/low reach
Georgetown- high match/low reach
Vanderbilt: match, i believe (though not too familiar)
NYU- match
Case Western: safety
Northwestern: Engineering- high match/low reach</p>
<p>In, In, In and the rest IN! I think you are an outstanding student good scores, top course load, URM, and the SAT is great for all of these. The only slight reach would probably be NYU but with rec’s you should be all OK :)</p>
<p>Penn SAS- decent shot with URM (low-reach)
Cornell Human Eco: i fit in well here- match
Georgetown- match
Vanderbilt- match
NYU- safety
Case Western- safety
Northwestern: Engineering- match</p>
<p>Penn SAS-high match
Cornell Human Eco: low reach
Georgetown-in
Vanderbilt-in/low match
NYU-in
Case Western-not too sure but i’d think match-high match
Northwestern: high match/low reach</p>
