Please brutally honest chance me Vanderbilt or Rice (ED1 possibly), Emory (ED2 possibly), UCLA, UCB, Georgetown

Weighted GPAs are really only for the high school. That is how the rank, assign to honor’s list, or for graduating Cum Laude. As a rule, colleges do not care about the weighted GPA, except in cases like North Carolina, where the weighting is standardized across all public high schools, or for the UC system which has its own way of weighting the GPAs of incoming students.

AOs at the colleges on the OPs list look at the unweighted GPA and at how rigorous the course set was, and both of these are done in the context of the high school.
