thanks for your comments.

I rank UW-Madison number 1 because it is less expensive, in-state, is a really good school, and has many organizations that I am interested in. however, if I were to get accepted at Brown, Princeton, or Columbia it would be tough to pass up. yes i would rather go to miami than washington university and yes harvard is #14. it is tough to choose between st. olaf and princeton. it will be a lot easier for me to rank these after I’ve visited some of them.

hopefully i can take the ACT in December and get a good score (33+). for my 26 I just studied for about an hour the night before, so I will definitely studier more for the next one.

if i end up taking about 12 AP classes, do you think that would some what make up for a lower ACT score, if I’d only get a 29-31 on the ACT in december?
