SAT - Math:770, CR:560, W:570 (Hoping to raise it)

I do the IB program, and my subject choises are and my scores in it:

Math HL - 6 (A)
Chem HL - 7 (A+)
Physics HL - 6 (A)
Environmental Studies SL - 7 (A+)
English Lang and Lit SL - 5 (B)
German Ab initio SL - 5 (B+)

The letter grade translations were done by myself, but IB is considered much more difficult than the American system.

These subject choices are the most rigorous in the IB diploma.

I had a research internship at my field of interest and the supervisor will be writing me a recommendation letter.

I am doing a research myself and I will be sending in the abstract with the application.

I think all my recommendations will be good if not great.

I’ll also be doing a research internship at a local research institute.

Can I consider this as a match or a safety school?
