I'm assuming you're international. If you don't need aid, matches are Stern, CMU, Emory, Vandy, Michigan. Maybe Berkeley if they continue to up the OOS population.

The others are reaches, big reaches if you're from Asia. Try to bring up the SAT scores.

look at USC, great alumni connections, great for jobs after graduation (perfect for then getting an MBA). USC rocks check it out! you also seem to be highly competitive and just right for all the other colleges you listed, as well as USC. good luck!

Swarthmore, Vandy, Emory and Williams are def worth applying to
I would try and figure out what you like and apply to a couple of reaches like the Ivies. You have a decent shot at getting it
Also add a couple safeties

Chance me back anyone?
