<p>I personally think you'll get into every UC (especially assuming that you're a Cali resident). I don't like your chances at Stanford/Duke/Columbia as much as the UC's since none out of your SATs/EC's/Essays are spectacular. And I think you have a pretty good chance at Northwestern.</p>

<p>I agree, but any indidivual who can accurately predict college admissions has a new job as my stock broker. Best of luck, I'm sure you'll be fine with a solid resume like that.</p>

<p>UCD/UCSB: Safety
UCSD: Safe Match
UCB/UCLA: Match
Northwestern: Match
Duke: Slight Reach/Reach
Stanford/Columbia: Reach</p>

<p>Stanford/Columbia/Duke are reaches for everyone because it's so competitive; I think you have a good shot at those 3 though...quick question: You already went ED w/ Stanford. You say your essays are "nothing spectacular." Take the time to make them spectacular and increase your chances! Best of luck w/ the private schools. Worst case scenario is you have to settle for a UC...which is where I want to be next year!</p>
