Chance Me and I'll Chance You :)

For me I think that your GPA is decent and the APs are probably enough. I think that on the surface your extra curriculars are enough but you will just need to explain it a bit on the app to explain how they’re important. Your SAT scores are decent but I think you can do better on subject scores. I think you can probably get in most of the schools you’re applying to easily but UC LA and Berkeley and especially Cornell will be the most difficult. For me I think Michigan is possible for you since your GPA and SAT scores match its range and will probably rank in 60+ percentile. The thing about UC schools is that they receive tons of applicants each year. From what I’d heard they mostly look at academics first so your subject scores might pull you down a bit. Your SAT I score is around 50-60 percentile of both UC schools so that’s fine. So now it really comes up to how well you make your app look with the ECs and your essays. Also note that the admissions for UC schools are now more holistic and Berkeley accepts recommendations now so it might be a plus for you. So overall UC schools you have a better chance in my opinion. Cornell on the other hand would be more of a reach school. Although your GPA and SAT fit in it’s range but it’s probably not in the top ranks. Your ECs don’t stand out as much compared to other top students in America(e.g winning a national championship, publishing something…etc). This means it would be up to how well your wrap your essays and your app. It’s good that you have a lot of fit schools for yourself but since these schools are all holistic I think you still have a chance. Good Luck on your application!!!
