Profile Eval Request - PhD, Political Behavior/Comparative Politics

[taterpotpie]

Hi, y'all! I've been a lurker throughout undergrad and it's finally time to apply. I was wondering if I could get a profile evaluation request to get a feel for where and if I can apply to.

Undergrad: top 5 in Poli Sci, non-Ivy
Undergrad GPA: 3.95
Major(s)/Minor(s): three majors including Political Science and tangential fields, minor in relevant field; 4.0 major and minor GPAs for all
GRE: 160V, 154Q (I know, I know :(, I'm hoping to make up for quant with some classes I got A's in)
LOR: two distinguished profs in Poli Sci whom I'm very close to, one prof in related subfield I'm interested in (not as prominent)
SOP: pretty strong-ish??
Research Experience: presented at international research conference, honors thesis in Political Science, RA-ship in lab in field I'm not interested in (but somewhat relevant to subfield) for a year, RA-ship for distinguished prof in PS for 2 years, hoping! to get my thesis published this summer
Special Classes: one graduate seminar in PS, two research methods classes, five upper-division courses relevant to subfields
Shooting for: UC Berkeley, Stanford, Yale, Harvard, UCSD, Northwestern, UCLA, SUNY-Stonybrook, UDubb, UT Austin

Not planning on submitting my GRE scores to GRE optional locations (any thoughts on that?). I'm also applying straight out of undergrad. Will that hurt my chances?

Are you interested in a region in particular? I think you are missing some strong programs in CP that you could apply that are higher than UT Austin/Northwestern but a bit lower than Harvard. Don't get me wrong, apply to Harvard/Yale/Stanford, but there is a LOT between those and UT Austin. 

Stonybrook is great in Behavior, but do they have someone in comparative?
