Is this a good list of colleges to apply to?

<p>Aw well it’s not like my family can’t pay a little but, but yea my family earns $15,000 annually, and my mom has a small amount of money in cash. </p>

<p>I really want to go to UChic though, and for QB some of the colleges are too far like Rice and even Emory is kind of far.</p>

<p>I wanna go to Carnegie Mellon, I’m in the same state but it’s still like 4-5 hours away.</p>

<p>I told my mom I would have absolutely no chance at uPenn but our family’s financial situation makes it possible (and me trying to improve my scores lol). </p>

<p>Also this guy who’s like 3rd or 4th in class rank had a 1980 SAT and he got into Penn Early Decision, I’m way below 3rd or 4th (like 15th out of 65) but I’ll get a higher SAT then him so maybe…</p>
