Dear top10aspirant,

The profile you present is competitive for these schools (based on the limited information posted). However, it is how well you present your candidacy and your ability to distinguish yourself from the applicant pool that will result in an offer of admission. You should apply to those schools, but also to at least one backup/safety school so you have alternative options.

Good luck,
Lisa
