I am also applying to UCs, state schools, and ivies. Let me know if you know a specific school that would be a good fit for me to apply EA or ED to. Also, if you apply Stanford REA, can you apply to other EA schools as well like MIT and Cal tech?

Wow, this is incredible! I personally think that you have a fighting chance, but I’ll let someone who is more experienced elaborate.

You may want to consider the UW – Seattle campus for biology, and I’m sure you will get in. But then again, with your stats and extracurriculars I think you will get into at least one of the Ivies, MIT, Caltech or Stanford!
