<p>Would be very helpful to know your class rank or at least your approximate decile. </p>
<p>I think your unweighted GPA will hurt your chances at some of the top-tier, most selective, schools on your list and also the ones that you are still considering. You have a rigorous course load but I haven’t been to an info session yet where the top-tier schools didn’t want the best grades AND the most rigorous course load. Check out the most recent decisions threads on this website for examples of those kids who were accepted/waitlisted/rejected. </p>
<p>Besides the usual Ivy schools, some more suggestions would be Duke, Rice, and Northwestern. I would also apply to UCSD. I’m not sure why UMinnesota would be on your radar. No disrespect to this good state school but to me that one doesn’t make any sense. </p>
<p>What I believe you REALLY need at the moment is a good financial SAFETY school you would be happy attending and one or two more solid matches. Good luck!</p>
