I also went to a public elite high school. Your SAT score is fine. I think you could probably get into Duke and some top liberal arts colleges at least. The ivies would be a reach, although you might as well apply. I knew some pretty smart (Asian) guys who got some B’s (maybe 4 or 5), and they ended up not getting into Rice. They were good students but not academic stars. So Rice may be a slight reach for you.

I’d say you’re in decent shape overall though.
