<p>Anyway, any opinions are welcome! i honestly have no idea which schools are my top choice..I'll just wait and see where I get accepted lol </p>
<p>All UC schools you will be fine. (90%+)
Each Ivy and Stanford are obviously reaches; however, I believe that you have a great chance to be admitted to at least one of your reaches. </p>
<p>How are your recs? Are you getting one from your advisor for your research?</p>
<p>My recs should be pretty good! its from my physiology teacher (who already has written me multiple letters for summer programs, and thinks that I am extremely dedicated to the sciences) and my calc teacher who writes extremely good letters for anyone he has had more than a year. so I dont think my recs will be my weak point!</p>
<p>UC Berekely, UCLA- high match (if you’re in-state, you shouldn’t worry too much)</p>
<p>UC San Diego, UC Santa Cruz, UC Santa Barbara, UC Davis- you could probably consider these safeties (especially if you’re in-state)</p>
<p>Northwestern- low reach (I could definitely see you getting in, but I wouldn’t guarantee anything)</p>
<p>Penn, Brown, Dartmouth- low/mid-reach (possibly, but I wouldn’t count on it)</p>
<p>Harvard, Stanford- mid/high-reach (but isn’t it for everyone who isn’t superman?). You have the numbers to keep yourself competitive, so don’t lose hope!</p>
<p>Good Luck! You’re quite accomplished, and you will definitely get into several of these schools!</p>
<p>I think you have a solid shot at UC Berkley, UCLA, and NWestern. Possible Penn and Brown too. I think Brown, Dartmouth, Harvard, and Stanford are reaches though.</p>
