Did you copy the list from USNEWS?

Looking at your list has too many ambitious universities like UWashington,UWisconsin, UMinnesota etc. Refine the list and there are other good universities too.And by not mentioning the area you going to specialize in its almost impossible to predict your chances at the universities.
