You're chances are very slim for out of state.

Your chances are slim enough to top 20ish schools that I wouldn't even waste the money to apply. No offense or anything. If you want to target some top notch schools that you'd have a good shot at getting into, target some places like Wisconsin, UIUC, Ga Tech, the mid UCs and others.

no offence... but I kind of agree. well you still have time... try boosting your SATs a bit at least to above 2100 about... and maybe take a lot of APs? and get your GPA to 3.9? maybe that's a bit impossible...
