<p>You really do need to get your SAT scores up a bit, especially for the top tiers. I agree with your groupings right now. The reaches are quite a stretch, the middle schools are good choices (you have about a 50/50 or 60/40 chance), and the lower ones are easy for you to get in to. You have a good rank, good course load, GPA, and great EC’s. These will all help Good luck on all of them though :)</p>

<p>Seem like you are on the right track. Great GPA and ECs. I think that if you got good SATs or ACTs (>2200s for SAT & >31 on ACT) It would help you out a lot.
Best of Luck to you!</p>
