I'd say you probably have as good a shot as possible for CCN and a good shot for H. YS are blackboxes so I have no clue what your chances are, but I'd guess you have a decent shot. Don't discount a lower ranked school with $$$$ though; I have similar numbers and am Latino (non MA/PR), and I received a full ride to a T13 which I'll likely accept

Thanks for the response and CONGRATULATIONS! I am certainly not discounting the rest of the t13 at all, I just felt more comfortable with gauging my chances at the rest. Would you mind saying your stats? A full-ride anywhere in the t13 would be an awesome outcome for me.

Your chances will be higher because you are URM.
