<p>Your chances develop (sorry: depend) purely on how your application turns out. Your stats are pretty good, but they alone will NOT get you in to the top-er schools on your list. With a poor application, you will definitely get into Bucknell, UNC Chapel, UVA, and Cal Poly, with maybes on the matches and no reaches. With a good application, you would have great chances at most of these, with ok chances at HYPS (is it possible to have good chances at those?). </p>

<p>This is why I must stress to you that if you want to get into your matches/reaches, halve your list of colleges. I am 100% sure when I say that no one can write 14 good applications in three months with school and what not. I would say pick two or three out of the bottom four, and pick four or five from the top 10. SERIOUSLY. </p>

<p>Good luck though!</p>

<p>Thanks Joseph! I probably won’t apply to those many, some of them were just for the sake of discussion</p>

<p>Definitely apply to the ivies. You bring geographic diversity and are a female valedictorian/captain. Write quirky/stellar essays and you can get into those schools.</p>
