Hi, I'm looking for some feedback on my current college list. Are there schools that should be removed or added? Are some of the tier placements unrealistic?

Location/Region: Don't care too much but would like it to be near an urban area

Major: I'm looking into math right now, but would also do applied math or cs. I mostly care about picking and choosing math or cs related majors to maximize my acceptance rates

GPA/Test Scores: GPA is 4.97/5.0 unweighted and SAT is 1580

Curriculum: I'd like the curriculum to be rigorous and challenging but I also don't want to burn out. One that is important for me is undergraduate internships and research opportunities.

Other: Indian male from Bay Area

@quartz talon this unfortunately counts as a chance me. We don’t allow any form of “rate my list based on my stats”. If you’d like to make a new post, you can follow our pinned template and list what schools you’re thinking of without mentioning if they’re a reach/safety/target and ask for additional suggestions. Sorry about that!
