<p>Cornell, Chicago, and Penn are reaches and the rest are safeties</p>

<p>There will literally be THOUSANDS of applications exactly like yours to those schools.
You have a great profile yet it’s unlikely to be treated at fair value at the schools you listed. NYU is a match on paper for instance yet sheer number of similar profiles makes it a reach.
SUNY Binghamton and SUNY Stonybrook are your only safeties. Everything else is a crapshoot.
I don’t think you really, really want to attend a SUNY though and with these stats you can aim for matches that would fit you better.
I would strongly advise you apply to schools in PA (Muhlenberg, Lehigh, Dickinson…) where a profile like yours will be a little bit less common and in particular to schools in the South and Midwest (anywhere from Carleton and Northwestern to Grinnell, Davidson, and Vanderbilt…) paying close attention to vibe.
You can also ask parents on the Parents Forum, there’s an active Jewish community that would be able to give you advice.
Finally, will you need financial aid? A 100% need school? Merit aid?
If you can pay full freight, you have even more choices.</p>

<p>The two SUNY schools… I can basically guarantee you’ll get in. You’ll probably get into NYU. Cornell is a low reach. Penn and UChicago will be more of a reach, but they are for everyone. Good luck!</p>

<p>Cornell: Mid-Reach
UChicago: Mid-Reach
UPenn: High Reach
SUNY Binghamton: Safety
SUNY Stonybrook: Safety
NYU: Match</p>

<p>This is my assumption based on your academic data, but I’m not sure how to account for other factors (i.e. Jewish, New York applicant pool). The SUNY schools are pretty much guaranteed though! </p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>
