searching for dream school

[farbdogg71]

<p>Unlike most people in this forum I still have no idea where I want to go. I'm so confused because I hear so many different things. I'm not a one school or bust person, I was just wondering if people could list like 3 or 4 reach schools, 2 middle and 2 safety.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.6 UW (with 6 AP's)
SAT: 1450 (math 740 Verbal 710)
SATII's: Writing 780 Math IC 730 US Histroy 700
Really good Writer for essays
Not thousands of EC's but of the 4 or so I have done them all 4 years</p>

<p>I'm looking to go to school either in the south or california, any suggestions?
Anything will help, thanks</p>
