Maybe Illinois, Maryland, Penn State, Purdue, Rice, Stony Brook, Yale and Wisconsin.

Many of these are real MAYBE cases.

And a lot of schools below the top-40.

The profile is not bad at all, especially with some research. I think it's reasonable to apply to top 60-90 and also have some safety schools below the top-100. Moreover, the main criterion for school selection is the matching of your research interests, but I think it's obvious.
