(Given stats and a small elite private school, these targets are different than what many would suggest for a public school student).


Harvey Mudd is not a reach for her! It’s a target. Please. If you want to boost for HM, find other opportunities.

DP. Mudd is a reach for all applicants due to a low acceptance rate (as is the case for all schools with low acceptance rates)


Crazy insane HM booster. You don't put 15% admit rate school in the same bucket as the 5% schools.

Doesn’t make any sense. Why stay away from Cornell?



Because it is a cold and sad place.

Bc it has a less collaborative culture and is a very sharp-elbowed IB/Wall Street vibe. Everyone is constantly one-upping another. Socially competitive too if you are not part of the crew that lives in the library.

Haverford. Target. I think she’d love it.

Brown: no advantage for girls.
