I’m a junior in the beginning stages of my college search. At this point I’m not too picky and pretty much open to any suggestions!

Info:
-I’m an AB student. I previously estimated my GPA to be approx a 3.7 but I’m not sure because the schools I attended overseas did not calculate GPA.
-I’ve pretty much taken all honours classes and I have pretty rigorous course load
-Estimated to score 2000+ on SAT
-Okay EC’s: volunteering, clubs, and sports

School criteria:
-I’m looking for schools strong in social sciences, primarily economics.
-Medium to large school
-Open to location but prefer relatively urban areas.
-Nice campus

Also, are there any schools that place a heavy emphasis personal qualities and your essay rather than a heavy emphasis on your grades and stats.
