You have so many good internships and a seemingly good academic profile AND you applied to so many schools. Something will work out for you - you don't need to worry at all. Just wait and check your e-mail. wink.gif

Yea, you're fine for the top school. Those great internships will probably compensate for applying straight from undergrad.

I think the only chink in the armor is international experience and a foreign language. Did you study abroad and can you speak a foreign language?
