You are definitely not getting into Stanford no matter what. You are likely out at Harvard as well, you would have a chance with a 178-180 but still not a great one. You are right at a good number for Chicago though so i'd ED there if you want that over any of the other schools outside the top 3.

I can't imagine why you'd want to ED to Chicago. You're pretty much a lock (check LSN for 173, 3.6-3.76 if you don't believe me).

I wouldn't ED Chicago with those numbers, you'd screw yourself out of any financial aid. I think you'd be in RD anyway

Wait and see what you get next week, if you get 175+, you have a shot at Harvard, although Stanford is going to be a longshot with your GPA.
