<p>I think you’re in at NYU. I know nothing about Hamilton. </p>

<p>The rest are problem slight reaches (Northwestern, Georgetown), to colleges where nobody is sure if they’ll get in. </p>

<p>Your SAT is excellent and your GPA is exceptional; yet the lack of AP’s or Honors might be the killer… however, here’s my opinions:</p>

<ul>
<li>U Chicago - Match</li>
<li>Yale - Big Reach</li>
<li>Harvard- Big Reach</li>
<li>Georgetown - Reasonable Reach</li>
<li>Hamilton- You’re In</li>
<li>Northwestern - Match</li>
<li>NYU - You’re In</li>
</ul>

<p>Hope this helps!!</p>

<p>How much can the lack of APs or Honors be helped when my school has its own curriculum, which doesn’t include AP or Honor courses?</p>
