<p>Based on our experience, I would differ with the previous posters. My kids went to a highly rated school near Chicago. Here are my thoughts based on where kids with similar stats in the last 10 years get in from our school. For further clarification I will put in statistics the number of kids that apply and get in to each school from our high school each year (we have about 700 kids per class for a student body of about 2800)) </p>
<p>Michigan - high reach With your stat OOS admission is highly unlikely, you would not get in from our school, early action will not affect your chances (40-50 apply, 4-7 get in)
Purdue - match (30-50 apply) (15-25 get in)
Texas - reach again since you are OOS it makes it much more difficult, you would not get in from our school (10 apply, 3 get in)
Florida - match/safety (statistics not meaningful)
NYU - low reach you would be borderline from our school (10-15 apply, 2-5 get in)
NC State - safety (statistics not meaningful)
UNC - low reach it helps that you are in state. If you were out of state, you would have litte or no shot (statisitcs not meaningful)
UCLA - high reach very difficult for OOS with your stats. You would not get in from our school (10-15 apply, 1-2 get in)
Carnegie Mellon - high reach, you would not get in from our school, Ed would increase your chances but still highly unlikely (5-10 apply, 1 gets in)
GT - low reach, your stats are a,little low for GT, you would be borderline at our school (5-10 apply, 2-3 get in)</p>
