Keep up the good work. It’s way too early to actually formulate a college list. Is the 35 on the actual ACT? If so…terrific! You are doing fine so far…just keep it up.
It’s fine to think about colleges, but you really don’t have enough info to actually choose your application list…now. Plus, many students really do change their minds over their high school years.
UMass is a terrific university. And if you keep it up, you will very likely get accepted there.
It sounds like finances might come into play for you. This is a conversation to have with your parents. Please have that conversation.
If you see a little pencil in the lower right of your post,you can click on that and edit your post to say you are a sophomore.
I think it’s great to have a goal. But you can’t possibly know for sure that you will even get accepted to medical school.
Most colleges want teachers who have had you as a student in class…one humanities and one STEM. You have the math…but the others would likely be viewed as additional recommendations. Check the colleges for the details.
A number of the colleges on your list cost $90,000 a year or more and don’t give much in merit aid…at all. The out of state public universities…you are unlikely to get significant merit aid at any of them…unless you score a Jefferson at UVA or something like that.
