I am a parent of a current high school senior and I agree entirely with pbr. Having said that, your list itself seems not only too long but also very diverse (e.g., the Ivies, small liberal arts schools, etc.). I think you should spend a bit more time being honest with yourself. What type of college experiences and outcomes do you value most? Which schools or types of schools are best able to provide you with what you want most? Your experiences would seem to give you an excellent chance at all the schools on your list BUT that does not guarantee acceptance. Schools are inundated with applications and have implemented many broad approaches to the selection process. Best of luck and I hope you find exactly what you are looking for.
