Good enough for CC/SEAS?

I think my courses are leaning more towards the SEAS side. I can definitely achieve a 2250 as long as I invest a bit of time and effort into my SAT. I am likely going to ED to SEAS, and then EA to UChicago and Caltech. Hopefully, I will get into Columbia because I like the college, its core and it also has the NYC factor as well!

So, would Columbia be a high match, low reach or reach? Or are colleges with low admission rates always reaches to almost everyone who applies?

Princeton is my top choice, but I think my chances of getting into Princeton are quite small…

Would USAMO help a lot? A little?

Thanks!
