I doubt I would get into Ivy league but I'm going to be applying to Rice for postgrad (doubt I'll get in, my GRE will prob be an epic fail).

In no particular order, Harvard, Stanford, University of Chicago, Princeton and Cornell. And MIT for tech.

cornell is the weakest ivy. (keep in mind an ivy school is just one of the oldest with a high standard of academic excellence. it doesnt neccessarily mean the school is one of the best. Rutgers in new jersey was offered ivy status and that uni is not even close to the others in terms of academics) I am shocked so many so cornell and not dartmoth or carnegie mellon. University of Chicago is very good also but deff not top 5.

In my defence, I'd say that I was largely influenced by the QS rankings. :P I guess Carnegie Mellon slipped my mind, but I do not think too highly of Dartmouth. The ones I mentioned (and maybe few more) are the ones that even laymen know about ('least in my country)..
