<p>Good chance at UVA due to great class rank, despite low GPA. Some good essays/recs would put you in a very good position for acceptance, but keep up the GPA, get a stellar SAT score, and you should be ok. Just remember, OOS admission at UVA is ridiculously hard, so make sure you have other options. Also, I suggest visiting UVA as it's a very different D1 enviorment, and some love it (like myself) and some absolutely hate it.</p>
<p>you have a very reasonable college list too. Not all this crazy ivy jazz when you don't have the stats. You stand a good chance at every one of those, and you know the top ones are reaches, so it is cool. I would advise staying away from so many OOS schools where you would have to pay crazy tuition and apply to schools like cornell or Uchicago where you can get need-blind aid. (if your parents make $150k+ a year, then don't worry about aid because you won't get much, if any.)</p>
