<p>You can def. try for harder schools even though they are all good schools none of them seem to be a reach at all for you. I am applying to UW-Madison and U of I as well for fall 2013! I have a 33 ACT and a 3.79 GPA at a community college in the honors program! I hope I can get in as well like you!</p>

<p>You definitely can get into those schools. I would shoot for something higher. I would only consider HYPSM reaches for you.</p>

<p>Chance me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1439230-chance-me-dartmouth.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1439230-chance-me-dartmouth.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>how about vanderbilt?</p>

<p>You are definitely applying to attainable schools, but I wouldn’t go for the very highest ones. They very rarely admit any lower than the top 10% of their class and while your application is good it isn’t going to get you in there.</p>
