<p>No offense, but looking at your race and the uniqueness of your application with a great GPA and test scores, you have a good shot at all of these schools. You may need more Math/Science awards for MIT/CalTech but that’s the only insight I could give as to why you may be rejected. Otherwise, I think you have a great shot at getting into these schools but obviously I can’t give an accurate chance as no one knows who will get into HYP-type schools.</p>
<p>You have ALL the stats. It comes down to your EC’s and perhaps an interview.</p>
