<p>Hello.</p>
<p>I am having some trouble knowing exactly where I should apply given my grades, etc. And don't want to apply to like 20+ colleges hoping for somebody to accept me. </p>
<p>First of all, I am in IB with
IB Math HL
IB Physics HL
IB Chemistry HL
IB Economics HL
IB English SL Lang and Lit
IB Spanish SL Lang & Lit</p>
<p>my GPA weighted is usually around a 4.6. straight A's and B's (more B's than A's, Usually 3-4 A's the rest B's)</p>
<p>and In my SAT I got 1990. </p>
<p>Not sure if culture has a lot to do, but I was born in the UAE and have background from Panama/Holland (family/lived in)</p>
<p>I want to apply for computer engineering.</p>
<p>I already applied to Georgia Tech, but I am not sure if I should aim for colleges at around the same level than that or better. I am definitely applying to Virginia Tech, Illinois and Michigan. My Question here is: Should I aim bigger or same or lower than that?</p>
<p>With bigger I mean like Carnegie Mellon, Tufts, Johns Hopkins, or any of the other big ones. (Would I stand a chance?)</p>
<p>Also, where could you suggest Universities I should apply with these scores? I just don't want to go to a University knowing I could have done better.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot for any answers :D.</p>
