You should take a look at UChicago. The admissions dean has been focused on admitting more students from TX. They have a great language program, but they are known for deflating grades, so med school is sometimes tough. But they also have great financial aid.

As far as ivy league - I think its a crapshoot. Your best shot would be at one of the schools that offers a binding ED1 program (Columbia, Penn, Dartmouth, Cornell). The SCEA colleges like Yale, Princeton and Harvard are very very tough, even for valedictorians.

If you don’t get in during the Early 1 round, make sure to have a solid plan for ED2.
