You’re not entitled to admission to any school just because you have high academic performance and standardized testing scores.

There could be critical flaws in your personality, revealed through your applications. A poorly written personal statement is fatal. Even a place like Berkeley wants students who are capable of the most basic kind of thinking:introspection.

Any sort of thinking ability beyond that is up in the air, but a high-ranking 2300+ should not have too much trouble gaining admission to a top university/college.
