@badminton4life …I think you are limiting yourself with the schools you have mentioned…I will PM you more info, but for now, I would like to share with CC that there are many fine folks here that will also tell you to think about applying to a wider net of schools - not just the cluster at the top a rankings list or endowment list. A couple of the schools on your list are really small and have very limited space for 10th grade. You have a lot to offer and apply to a wider variety of schools. Hang in there and stay positive! :bz
