<p>I think you harve a reasonable chance at your target schools, and you could get into one of your high reaches.</p>

<p>I’d say you’re definitely in for UVA. Cornell, Duke and Rice are all within good reach if you indeed get ~2200 on your SAT, so study hard!</p>

<p>I pretty much agree with what was said above ^
As long as you can also show depth in your ECs and continue with the good number stats, then UVA, Cornell, Duke, and Rice shouldn’t be difficult.</p>
