Rejected from every supertarget I applied to- help

I applied to every supertarget in the US and UK (Wharton, Yale, Mendoza, McDonough, McIntre, McCombs, Ross, Dyson, Dartmouth, USC, Penn State Nittany, SMU, Colgate, Williams & Mary, Amherst, LSE, Oxford, Cambridge, Warwick, Imperial, UCL, St Andrews) and even a few targets (safeties) like Stern, Northwestern, UChicago, Haas, UMiami, Harvard, UCLA, Princeton and UC-Irvine.


Help. I'm genuinely angry, lost and confused. I just want to get into at least a regional semi-target like Stanford (don't really care if it places zero kids outside of SF and LA, I'm gunning for LA).
