Recommend some schools for me?

Puzzle

For the purposes of getting recommendations, let’s assume finances aren’t an issue. :)

GPA: 4.0 - can’t believe I forgot that! (that’s unweighted)
Class rank: my school doesn’t rank but I think a realistic estimate places me in the top 10, if not higher :)

What makes me tick: hmmm, I’m not sure how to put this in words, but I love love LOVE challenges. I’m one of those people that will sit down with an interesting math problem and work on it from different approaches until I solve it, and when I do I’ll be incredibly happy You might have guessed that I love math - it’s my favorite subject by far and I do it for fun sometimes (not kidding, but not all the time either… not that nerdy :P). I really like working in groups, and I love helping other people and advising others - I tend to advise my sophomore/freshman friends a lot.

Obviously I’m really interested in science - if not medicine-related, definitely still something in that field. theoretical physics also interests me a lot.

What’s special about me… I’m considered one of the top debaters in my state (it’s hard to rank exactly, but I’m capable of beating all others on my state circuit, although we all beat each other at times), and I absolutely love debate. I’m generally an absolute nerd, although I’m not antisocial-read-in-a-corner nerd.

I forgot to mention that I’m also doing an engineering internship this summer, which I’m really excited about.

Does that help? Feel free to ask more questions :)

And my safety is U Michigan… please correct me if I should not consider that a safety :3
