SECTION SCORES
WHAT WOULD STRENGTHEN THIS FILE
Built for students aiming higher.
Every evaluation is grounded in admissions data published by the U.S. Department of Education for 1,585 American colleges: real acceptance rates and real admitted-student score ranges. Chances are estimates, and we label them that way.
Nobody tells students
what actually matters.
01What is my application actually missing?
02Which weaknesses matter, and which don't?
03How competitive am I, really?
04What should I fix first?
Counselors are stretched thin. Friends and family are invested in your feelings. Most tools are built to be encouraging. The result is that students spend months on the wrong parts of an application and find out far too late.
See your application differently.
Each section is read on its own terms and scored with its reasoning. Your overall score is the plain average of the sections you submit.
EXAMPLE RESULT
83
out of 100
Four sections, equal weight. Anything you don’t submit isn’t scored and doesn’t count against you. Each tip shows how many points it could add to its section, so you can see what a fix is worth before you spend a month on it.
The notes an admissions reader would write.
Paragraph-by-paragraph feedback on what actually gets essays dismissed: abstraction, borrowed insight, and conclusions that arrive before the evidence.
- Quotes your own sentences back to you
- Works on supplements, not just the personal statement
- Never rewrites it for you
Ever since I was young, I have always been passionate about helping people. Volunteering at the clinic taught me the value of hard work. On my third Saturday, a woman asked me to explain her discharge papers twice, then a third time, and I realised she couldn’t read them. I learned so much from this experience.
Find out your list is unbalanced while you can still fix it.
Every school is sorted into reach, target or likely from its real admit rate and where your scores sit in its published range.
- Reach, target or likely, per school
- What a family at your income actually pays
- Suggestions that fill the gaps in your list
One reach, two targets, one likely, and every likely school is affordable at this family’s income. Add one more target to give the list some depth.
See how a reader weighs your activities.
Readers look for commitment and consequence, not volume. Paste your activities list and get a score with the reasoning behind it.
- Scored on its own, separately from essays and grades
- Notes that point to your own entries
- Tips ranked by how many points each could add
Example only. Your read quotes your own entries, and anything you don’t submit isn’t scored.
We’re building this in public.
We don’t have testimonials yet — and we’re not going to invent them. IvyscoreAI is new.
What we do have is admissions data on 1,585 U.S. colleges, a source for every number we show, and a score that will tell you things you don’t want to hear. When students share their results, we’ll put their names on them.
Build the application you know you’re capable of.
Understand where your application stands — and what you can improve.
