Well, I don't know what you have to lose besides some time and money if you shoot for the top, and an audition at a top school can double as your outside appraisal. Who better to weigh in than the faculty at a top-tier conservatory? I say go for it and let the chips fall where they may. You might surprise a few people which is always fun.
It's important in music to do as well as you can from the outset. It really does matter where you did undergrad when it comes to applying for grad school. You need something concrete on your resume to get your foot in the door at the top schools. I'm sure that's a controversial statement but I do think it's realistic.
