<p>I’d honestly have to say that though you may be competetive at each of these schools, none of them can be considered a safety. Your list is very top heavy, and though I won’t go into detail about what I consider to be your chances at each, I would suggest finding schools that you like, will be an admissions safety, and will be financially feasible. Good luck!</p>

<p>You are certainly competitive for those schools but you do, as malenonfare has said, need to find a few safety schools (admissions-wise and financially).</p>
