<p>There is no reason you have to have any schools in the reach and match categories if you do not prefer any of them over your safety. Any such schools are optional additions to your application list.</p>
<p>Indeed, at your stats, there are not that many match schools for admissions (as opposed to safety and reach-for-everyone schools). Berkeley may be, but is probably too expensive as an out-of-state student.</p>
