<p>Stanford, Penn and Chicago: Unlikely unless you have something amazing
NW and Cornell: Reach</p>
<p>UV, UCB, UCLA, NYU and CMU: Realistic chances</p>
<p>You need to have more reasonable colleges on your list.
What about some LACs? (I think you are an Asian. LACs want to have more Asians.)
What about Notre Dame and Vanderbilt (Reach)?
What about Wash U since you are not applying for FA?</p>
<p>You can improve your chances if you get better SAT scores.</p>
<p>@20more- What exactly are LACs ? & I’m applying to Notre Dame, as well as University of Michigan, USC, Boston College, Boston University, and have been considering Vanderbilt and Washington U, like you mentioned.
My backups are Pepperdine, UCI, UCSD, and UCD.
And I am applying for financial aid, sorry for not mentioning that before!
Thanks :)</p>
