Hi! So Ive done well in HS academically, nothing really spectacular. Ive gotten really involved at school and have been named president of my senior class.

I think you’ll get into all of them only that BC and Richmond might be tossups (50-50 chance) and I think you might get waitlisted at one or both of them. Still, college admissions is random but I would be willing to bet on no more than 2 rejections with your current list.
