I'm going to the safety. Reach for the bragging rights only. I'm proud to have my major decided and more than 70% of the GEs taken down by AP courses
I should stop the worrying about grades already, in fact colleges no longer see my grades after the first quarter anyways.

Might add one more match to apply to, depending on how my reach goes.

If your grades are really bad schools will rescind your application. Maybe if it's a safety they wouldn't but don't get so hasty there. Nearly all schools require you to send in your end of year report to make sure you didn't get straight D's or something.

True, but you don't have to keep your grades as high as they've been either. One of my friends had a 3.8 when he applied, got a 2.8 his second semester of senior year, and didn't get rescinded. It was his reach school, too.
