<p>^^^That’s way too many reaches considering 1900 SAT’s. </p>
<p>My list would be (based on your interest in physics)</p>
<p>Reaches:Cornell, Columbia, JHU, UPenn</p>
<p>Matches:UNC, PennState(OOS), Rutgers(OOS), CaseWestern, WakeForest</p>
<p>Safety:NCState, MichiganState</p>
<p>I know people are saying to remove PennState and Rutgers from the list. But I would say to keep them because their physics programs are better than some of the reaches like Duke and Brown. You can complete both their application in 1-2 days (If money is an issue, you can always request fee waiver). Just apply and wait and see what they offer. </p>
<p>If you want to study physics, why apply UChicago? And unless you get the SAT’s at least 2200, MIT and CalTech are very very difficult (I didn’t say impossible). </p>
<p>Finally, I would add Michigan State and CaseWestern into the mix.
That’s my opinion. And 10-12 universities is a norm nowadays, so don’t worry.</p>
