low reaches: U-Chicago, Wash U (does legacy still count RD?), U-Mich, Cornell, Rice
high match: UNC-Chapel Hill, UCSD, UIUC.
Good luck with so many schools lol. The rest are probably matches and safeties. </p>

<p>Safety-Mizzou, Georgia Tech
Mid-High Match- Each UC except for UCB, UNC, UMich, UW Madison, U Chicago, Wash U, UIUC, CMU, and Northwestern, Duke
Reach-Penn,Cornell, UCB</p>

<p>What is your intended major? Where is your home state?</p>

<p>The music angle and upward grade trend are both nice. Honestly, I don’t understand why you’re applying to twenty colleges, but I guess you’ve thought this out.</p>

<p>I assume you are still in Missouri, but without knowing your intended major, it is impossible to chance you for at least for several schools.</p>

<p>physics math @billcsho‌ </p>

<p>UIUC Physics is very competitive (top rank in the country), while Physics in UMich is under LSA. You are OOS for both. Your GPA is a bit low for these 2 schools. How does it look without freshmen year?
For UIUC Physics, it would be a low reach to reach, while for UMich LSA it would be likely a low reach (but may go either way depending on how your recalculated GPA looks). Your ACT is slightly above the 75th percentile. UMich put more emphasis on GPA and course rigor while you do have the rigor. If your recalculated GPA is near or above 3.8, it may become a high match.</p>
