<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Strong ECs and excellent SAT II scores, but I would say that in order to be truly competetive for such schools as UPenn and Columbia and even some of the others that you have mentioned you may need to get your ACT scores up or do well on the SAT I. You are first gen which helps and you seem to have taken and excelled in a very rigorous academic schedule. Improve your test scores and you should have a chance at all those schools mentioned. I don’t know much about Rice, but if you are able to get ACT to like a 33 the others will be matches with the exception of the Ivies which tend to be reaches for anyone. </p>
