You will still have a good college to go to with your current GPA. You need to breathe, relax, and realize that this gives you opportunity to look for the schools that are the best fit for you.

But, if you are correct in thinking that they will be “strong,” then I think these are some schools (roughly categorized from what I think are the schools most likely to least likely to grant an acceptance):
