<p>Harvard: reach
Princeton: reach</p>

<p>You have a chance of getting in. However, like most people applying to those schools, it is a reach.</p>

<p>Do apply for some safeties such as Northeastern, Boston College, U of Maryland, etc.</p>

<p>I do have a safety, but since I am not worried about my chances of admission to it, I am not asking about it. Please notice that I am NOT actually applying to Harvard or Princeton - it’s just an effective way of getting people to look in the thread.</p>
