Suggest deleting in red. Due to your superb numbers, I think you can delete some of the further away private schools, a few of the safeties, and the lowest chance for OOS SUNYs. You might want to add Quinnipac.

Just curious, why delete Vanderbilt? It's a huge reach for me, but my father did go to school there for undergrad and I still have a ton of family who live in Nashville. I'll probably end up applying there anyways; my family's insisting I try at least.

If you have any attachment to the school, it's definitely worth keeping. Dartmouth however is in quite removed from civilization in NH, so give that consideration a good hard look before you apply. Otherwise, if you feel comfortable applying to 20 schools, that is a good number to have.
