You should be in good shape for both schools.

I live in Wisconsin and have… Pretty much the exact same layout. Except with easier classes than what you’ve taken. All A’s freshmen and sophomore, A’s with one b and c in junior year from a loss of motivation, and senior year lined up with AP’s. 3.83 gpa and 30 act. I’m applying there, too, so I guess we’ll both see?
You’d seem to be a really top choice for UW-Madison and University of Minnesota. You have a ton of extracurriculars, a high GPA and ACT score, and your schedule is very rigorous. You should have no problem.
