I think first, you have to make some decisions as to the kind of school you want

Big School, Small School. Urban, Suburban, Rural, State School or Private School (which may depend on your family finances) etc. things like those.

To help, try this. To help – try this [College Search - College Confidential](http://www.collegeconfidential.com/college_search/)

After that, you have put together a list of reaches, matches and safeties.

Based purely on the numbers, you should get into an excellent school. Whether that means “Ivy/Ivy Peer” (if that’s what you even want, but that’s the question many ask here) is really hard to say – Your grades are hard to judge out of context. It looks like some kind of A- (say 3.7 ish) – which might be a little low (but not deadly). However, if this puts you in the top 5% -10% ish of your class, may be ok. The SAT CR, is a bit low for this type of school, but again, maybe not deadly to your chances. The SAT Math/Writing and your best SAT2s are obviously fantastic. Based on what you’ve shown, I don’t think there is any school that would be ‘impossible’ for you.

You haven’t shared ECs, etc. So there’s a lot missing.

Other than the 25 or so schools in this very top tier, you’re probably very competitive everywhere.

Good luck
