    1. UPenn - dream (good choice)
    2. Ohio State University -moderate
    3. Texas A&M University, College Station -dream
    4. University of Colorado, Boulder -moderate
    5. NUS -dream
    Your acads are awesome. They will help you a lot.
    Get good recommendations, write an attractive SOP and you can make in any university you listed.
    You can apply to USC (safe) , NCSU (focusses on acads, so a good option) , Virginia tech, CMU (risky but gettable).
    Include atleast 2 safe options like SJSU (great job oppurtunities), NEU, UPitt .

    Its simple. Because I know many people getting rejects from NUS despite of an awesome profile. It is pretty competitive. Though you stand a good chance, it is not easy to come by. You need to write good SOPs and obtain good LORs as well. It's one of the best in Asia.
