[quote=Anonymous]There are so many other factors. I'd look at the stats directly on school websites (outside sides can be outdated, even BigFutures) or in Common Data Sets, and look school by school. Very very roughly, top-10 national universities with a 32 will be super-reaches (not impossible, but pretty unlikely, without even getting to the low acceptance rates). For the rest of the top-50, there will be a continuum from reasonable reach to high match to match. Check the most recent scores, as there are schools in the 20-40-ish range where the 25th percentile used to be 31 and may have moved up to 32. Where the range is 31-34, I'd put a 32 at high match to reasonable reach, considering the 3.9 gpa should pass muster, and depending on the acceptance rate (when the rate is under 30%, I'd probably have to say reach). For safeties, I'd look down the national university rankings to somewhere well beyond top-50, probably the back quarter or so of the top-100.[/quote]
