[Genie0422]

Hello,
I am applying for Fall 2020 and would really appreciate some advice.

I finished writing SOPs' for nine schools from in rankings through #12~#29 and I am wondering if I should apply to some more....

I really need advice on whether I have fair chance of getting into those schools or should apply to some schools with lower rankings.

Thank you in advance!
