Honestly, that may be too many Bs for those schools. It seems that as the coursework got harder, your grades slipped a bit. From a college’s POV, the more closely the work came to college level work, the worse you did. Not the best light for an applicant.

There will be AOs who will appreciate that you took a risk and pushed yourself. Do what you can to turn things around. See your teachers, figure out how to study better, organize yourself. If you can pull it together, at least you will have that story.

Don’t stop trying but do look for some schools where you will be a strong candidate. You have a lot going for you.
