Hello,

I would have to know a little more about you to tell for sure, because it's not a black-and-white "clearly qualified" or "clearly unqualified" picture. For example, the 680 is low for Yale and NYU, but whether it's slightly low but still within range or "too low" would depend on the whole picture - keep in mind the adcoms view the application holistically. Therefore factors such as the quality of your work experience (i.e., how much did you excel in your work positions), your demographic group, your undergrad GPA and other factors would come into play in deciding whether Yale and NYU would be reasonable reaches or not.

Based on the info you provided and with the above qualification, I'd consider Yale and NYU possibly reasonable reaches and the remaining schools on par to reasonable reaches.

Qualitatively, your profile seems like a good fit for the schools (in terms of exprience and interest).

Best regards,
