well, you gotta narrow it down a little bit...start with: what part of the country do you want? big or small school? what do you want to major in? city vs small town? etc etc

If you are looking toward the Northeast, you qualify for a few Ivies and a lot of Top-notch schools.

I would start by looking at Brown, Dartmouth, UPenn, and Cornell for Ivies, and also look at Northwestern (outstanding business and journalism), Notre Dame, BC, Georgetown, and Duke. All are great well-rounded schools that you have a legitimate chance of getting into.

Any part of the country is really OK, but I would prefer N.E. as I am from New York. Preferably a larger size school in any kind of setting and majoring in Pre-Med or possibly a 7 Year program. I was really just wondering what type/level of colleges I should be aiming for.

Thanks, I wasn't really sure where I stood and got kinda nervous when I read other people's posts.
