What are my chances guys?
This is my colleges list:

Reach: Stanford(early), Cornell, Harvard, John Hopkins, MIT, Rice University, Duke, Princeton
Match/Safety: UT Austin, UT Dallas, Texas A and M

Demographics: Indian Male Rising Senior

Please help me out, I want to know where I could possibly get in. Feel free to recommend universities that would be a fit for me.
Thanks!

Without claiming expertise, academics look strong with corroborating test scores. Not sure on your senior year courses but I expect to see rigor. ECs look ok, but there is nothing there that screams uniqueness. So I think all your reach colleges are reach, your essays need to really shine to make you standout as someone they want and that is different from all the other smart Indian boys they will see. I think you may be from Texas so are any / all of your matches auto admit? Good Luck!

It sounds like you’re in Texas, otherwise no one would even think of UT-Dallas. It’s a good safety list, because you’re an auto-admit for all three. UT-Dallas would probably give you a full ride. As far as the other schools on the list, they’re high reaches for anyone. There’s no way to chance you, other than to speculate.

Thanks for the comments here already, really appreciate the feedback. Also, I’m having difficulty making a match list, everything is either a reach, or a safety, or downright too expensive out of state. Can you guys please recommend match schools you guys think would be a good fit for me? And yes, I am in Texas. I plan to pursue either biology or electrical/computer engineering major

RPI would fit your mix.

Your list is excellent. One thing to keep in mind, though. Biology and electrical engineering are two very different majors. at UT, if you’re admitted into one competitive major as a freshman, it’s very difficult to switch, because of competition. A&M is more flexible, but still very competitive.
