<p>Thank you everyone for taking the time to help me. I’ve talked to my parents and we decided to use auditions as the visits. We also decided to go about looking at schools by grouping them into groups like safety, want to go to, and long shot. I’d I apply to two or three of each. Fall of next year, once I have some good recordings I am going to start emailing professors like spiritmanager suggested. After my lesson Monday I still think my best shot is with minimal instrument auditions but I might stand a chance otherwise. We talked and it seems my main problems are performance anxiety and snare drum. Both of which we can work on. Thanks again everyone.</p>
