<p>o saying as far west as ohio was just a ballpark figure. it doesnt matter, i mean i just dont what to go to say California. But thats guys, actually a lot of the options listed above are schools i was already examining. Also as far as the SATs go, im going to retake um as my CR was 80 points lower than on the psat, and ill see if i can break 1450 this time, which should help a bit in the admissions and financial aid. does any1 know a lot about the NEC/Tufts and NEC/Harvard programs. id be very interested in attending such great liberal arts/ music programs, but how viable are double majors. And as was aforesaid, i do fully intend to consider other, safer choices as well. i will probably limit applications to about 7, with maybe ithaca or something as a safety. i dont know, i guess if i wasnt still think about it a lot i wouldnt have posted on here.</p>
