Chances?

I went to Cornell's summer architecture program and received an all-5/A+ evaluation with very positive comments. My portfolio will be art pieces from AP Studio Art (5), some drawings and architecture work from Cornell, and 3 RISD drawings.

Right now my top 5-year choices is Cornell (obviously) but I'm also applying to Cambridge and Yale SCEA. Those are my three major reaches.

Which schools would be matches for me?

Academic stats:

SAT: 760R, 780M, 780M
SAT II: Math II 800, Physics 800, Bio 730, Chinese 800

GPA: 4.62 Weighted; No ranking.

AP:
Studio Art-Drawing 5 (Studied independently)
Art History 5 (Studied independently)
Calc AB 5
Physics 5
US History 4
Microeconomics 5 (Studied independently)
Macroeconomics 4 (Studied independently)
English Language 5

AP National Scholar, National Merit Scholarship Semi-finalist.

Current classes:
AP Calc BC
AP US Gov & Politicis
AP English Lit
AP French
AP Chemistry

include lots of your summer college work for your portfolio. if you do a great job for your portfolio, you're in cornell for sure.

cambridge and yale have very different programs. they don't offer B.ARCH's and the experiences you'll get as opposed to cornell will be very different.
