<p>The usual, very driven, good leadership qualities,</p>

<p>Chance me for:
Syracuse
Northwestern
Boston University
Duke
Vanderbilt
U of Michigan </p>

<p>and any other recommendations.</p>

<p>Just make sure you apply to several schools in Florida so you will be sure to have an acceptance.</p>

<p>While your ECs are fantastic, the transcript/scores/rank might not be the best. I honestly think that Vanderbilt, Duke, and Northwestern are reaches. I know that Boston looks at transcript/rank/courseload first and then recs and then ECs and then essays.....so it might be a slight reach. More in the ballpark than the other 4. Syracuse don't know much about.</p>

<p>Syracuse - match
Northwestern - high reach
Boston University - match
Duke - high reach
Vanderbilt - high reach
U of Michigan - reach</p>

<p>Definitely make sure to apply to UF and UCF as well.</p>

<p>Sorry, but you are a reach at all of those except Boston. Expand your list to include schools like USF, UCF, UF, or FIU.</p>
