Profile is balanced. You can target UNC,Michigan,Duke, Virginia and NTU. For the other universities I would recommend a higher score as all these universities do not have high acceptance rate. You can look in to UT-Austin, University of Washington,St.Louis,Georgetown University,Ohio state University. This is merely based on the information provided. A proper profile discussion would be required to know the best fit of universities for your profile. Also, specialization targeting needs to be informed.
