I previously posted on this forum and received very helpful feedback on my school list. I am beginning to finalize this as the application cycle approaches—how does it look? I have family in Boston and am biased toward the coasts (CA, MA). Targeting research/leadership heavy schools.

Your LizzyM is about as good as it gets. I think you have a shot at any school in terms of academic stats.

I was a CA applicant last cycle and can tell you a bit about the CA schools.

UCD has a very strong bias for NorCal residents and its primary care mission.
USC values sustained volunteering so take that into consideration if you have a low number of volunteer hours or the majority of them are in a short time period.
Good choice keeping UCR out if you're not from inland empire.
