UChicago is a low reach, Stanford more a high reach. UChicago seems to be definitely a possibility though.

UChicago looks very achievable with a Low Reach/High Match here with a good application it will fall closer to the High Match.

Stanford is a reach for everyone school but without a doubt you have a great shot at getting in.

UChicago accepts anywhere from a 3.0-4.0. I've seen it happen...their essays are 50% of their admissions decisions.

Chance for CMU, JHU, NYU, UMich, CWRU

@jakjak1
You will get into Eastern Carolina as long as your name wasn't spelled wrong. I think you have a good chance at Duke. There is no rhyme or reason to Chapel Hill, they pick students by reaching into a hat. No joking, but really, I think you are more qualified than people I know there, but also I know very very qualified students that don't get it at all.

The others I don't know about as well as I do for NC and SC schools.
