Considering adding Mount Sinai to the list as another reach school. Any suggestions? Anything I should add/remove?

I can't comment on too many of the northern schools, but I do know that you need to have a good reason for applying to Wake. I read through their 2011-2012 Application thread last night, and it seems like Wake favors IS/OOS about evenly (weird for a private school?) and that they realize their lower stat range will make them a safety for a bunch of people. Thus the need for good reason to apply.

I'm sure there are threads here that address this, which I'll search for later, but are we supposed to look at median or mean #'s for the most accurate representation of chances?

Median is most accurate since it eliminates outliers. Any suggestions for what to replace Wake with?

Don't overthink it, as long as you're happy with your list just go with it.

I'd take off Brown and add another match/safety in its place.

Thanks for the help everyone! I decided to replace Albany with VCU. I want to add University of Virginia to the list as well, but I don't want to go over 22 schools. Should I take out one of the SUNY schools?
