<p>Wow. I would love to learn more about your mathematical ecology research – sounds so interesting! I think you’re an amazing applicant to any of the colleges on your list, and I believe you’ll get into Princeton, CMU, UVA, Columbia and Northwestern. I’m no expert, but I’ve read a lot of the bios of students admitted to top universities, and yours reads like one of theirs. I hope you post your results later. :)</p>
