[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was surprised that, for high stats (i.e., 1550+ with perfect GPA and top rigor the school offers), [b]there really are no target schools. [/b] All T20s are reaches, and in the next tier down, almost every school yield protects (even state schools for OOS applicants). As a result, kids need to apply to a v large number of schools, which is time consuming, emotionally draining, and $$$. So much uncertainty . . . . People on this site always say 'have a safety DC loves!'. But which school that accepts more than 50% of students is likely to be a great fit for a kid with perfect GPA and scores? [/quote] B1G and ACC schools with the exception of Northwestern and Duke[/quote] +100[/quote]
