Asian? What sort of Asuan? Chinese Asian? Korea Asian or maybe even Singapore Asian? This affects your identity sand privilege

Your stats will not keep you out. Your chances are as good as anyone else applying to single digit schools.

4

Indian Asian

5

Where are you planning on applying early (EA/ED/SCEA)?

And yes your stats are clearly competitive for all the schools you mentioned. But as everyone probably knows, there’s more to it than simply stats. Plus, your racial identity might put you at a bit of a disadvantage.

I think I will apply to Duke or Brown ED.
