counselor-o-matic can be a little unrealistic about where your college choices lie.

also, it’s worth noting that georgetown is significantly more competitive than the other schools acarta listed as “reach”

also i would say virginia tech will be at LEAST as competitive as the schools acarta listed under “matches”

just a very general guideline on my part, you can probably be looking reasonably at any schools ranked between 21-50 on USNews, stretching from reach (at 21) to safety (at 50)

schools ranked above 21 i wouldn’t preclude you from acceptance, but i would probably label them as “high reaches” depending on your ECs and other qualifications. if they are good this obviously improve your chances.

other than that your stats look very good, your weakest point would probably be the 2010 SAT because of the 610 on math. it would be my estimation that if you could raise that to a 700, or at least a 650+ you could raise your scope significantly, but maybe i’m placing too much emphasis on test scores.
