Preliminary School List (Chance Me and Help me Narrow my choices down!)

<p>Hey Guys,</p>

<p>I've recently started looking into colleges and have composed a preliminary list of what colleges I'm looking to apply to. So far I've found 29 schools that interest me in some way or another. I'd like to get the number of schools down to 20 or even 15. </p>

<p>How difficult would it be to realistically apply to 20 school with phenomenal essays and supplements for all? How long does a typical college app take to complete?</p>

<p>Anyways I have a 3.8-3.85 GPA (12 APs) with outstanding ECs and community work and am very well rounded. If you could chance me at the following schools and even help me eliminate some for specific reasons, I would greatly appreciate it! Also feel free to suggest some schools! Thank you guys so much!</p>
