Could you folks please grace me with your opinions?

3.3 unweighted GPA
3.9 weighted

(These were at the end of sophomore year and I did poorly freshman year. They will probably go up to 3.4 and 4.0 by the end of junior year)

30 ACT
1360 SAT (650 Math 710 Reading)

4 years varsity XC/Track
NHS

Freshman year: 1 AP
Soph.: 2 APs
Junior: 2 APs
Senior: 4 APs

All other classes were honors and I’ll finish with AP Calc

Schools I’m looking at are:

-Lehigh (high reach)
-NC State Engineering (Reach-ish, in state)
-The Citadel (safety)

As you can see I’m also open to school suggestions.

There is a significant advantage to applying Early Decision to Lehigh. Acceptance rate is 63% as opposed to 31% for RD. If Lehigh is your top choice, you should ED, but it will still be a reach. I think you’re in at NCSU, in at Citadel.
