[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which schools would you suggest for them for ED1/EA and ED2?

Candidate 1
Male, humanities kid, top 3 in 3rd tier private. 4.0, 1520. full pay, not URM/legacy/athlete, OK EC plus great summer jobs. Wants a private top 30 or top 10 LACs in the northeast

Candidate 2
Female, STEM kid, top 10 in TT feeder private. 3.8, 1590. full pay, not URM/legacy/athlete, not pay-to-play science research internship but no job. Wants a small-to-midsized STEM/research college in northeast or CA[/quote]

Bowdoin, Middlebury, Dartmouth for 1; Davidson if willing to compromise on NE.

For 2: Stanford, Hopkins, Penn, Princeton, Columbia if they don't mind NYC, Cornell if they like rural over cities. MIT or Caltech if they do not care about a campus with students with myriad interests. [/quote]

I thought you’d need much better ECs, GPA, and connections or athlete to the ones listed for 2?[/quote]

Yes. And 2 of the 3 proposed for candidate 1 also a stretch.[/quote]
