I too am smitten with one school in particular, however, I know that as a rising junior, I need to broaden my options and open my mind to the many other phenomenal schools out there, so as to keep myself from being focused on simply one.
I’m very interested in attending a school in the south/southwest/southeast/midwest in an urban or suburban location…As I mentioned above, I am a rising junior, so I don’t really have applicable test scores, just yet. In the meantime, however, here is a summary of my current status:
-In Top 5% of class (Out of 550-600 students)
-Upward Trend in GPA
-A few unique EC’s
-High Moral Values
-Open-Minded
-Frankly Put: I am a nerd.
-Devoted to three clubs, president of each.
-Strong Leadership Activities/Positions (Only a fraction of which are mentioned above)
I love to be around other intellectual, motivated, dedicated students who are willing to work hard, and at the same time, are somewhat easy going. Any suggestions, in regards to which universities I might consider visiting/applying to would be greatly appreciated!
(By the way, I hope that the OP is not offended by my redirecting their thread! Good luck in your college search! )
