Assuming you do above average on your DAT and interviews, you can apply to any school you want to and would have a decent shot at getting in. Your GPA is excellent.

Thats a great GPA and i know how hard engineering majors can be (although I have never heard anything about Uconn's engineering dept). Still, you cant tell where to apply until you take the DAT. The DAT is the singlemost important thing you can do at this point......so make sure you take it when you are fully prepared, theres no rush to take it January for next year's cycle unless thats when its best for you.

With that major and a 25+ DAT - apply to the best, you'll have good chances at Michigan, UNC, UCONN, Penn, Columbia, even Harvard.

With a 20-21 in the DAT, it becomes a different story completely.

Probably meaning that you can get into all the other schools except Harvard, etc.
