Will take ACT in December</p>

<p>Extra curriculum and clubs:
tennis- very very competitive
piano- I have been playing for as long as I can remember
school tennis team- I have 4 state championships
International Club
Latin Club
NHS
Quiz Bowl
Mock Trial
Environmental Club (treasurer)</p>

<p>notredameirish- not interested in going there?</p>

<p>A little more information would be helpful:
Size of school
Urban/suburban/rural
Possible subjects of interest to study (if you have an idea)
University or LAC
Do you want to play tennis there? (USTA ranked?) -if so, are you looking for D1 or D3?</p>

<p>Do you have any idea about what you might major in? What can your parents afford? Would you like to be in a rural, suburban, or urban school and how many people would you like to go to school with you? Any other preferences you might not have mentioned?</p>

<p>The truth is, your stats are high enough to earn you essentially automatic admission to all but perhaps 25 schools, and even then some of those might be within reach.</p>

<p>Sorry for being vague!
Yes, I would really like to go to ND.
Small liberal arts college is appealing, but I also like UVA (love the campus) and Notre Dame (obviously). I do not like huge state schools, though.
Urban, suburban, and rural are all good.
I would like to be a dermatologist.
I would like to play tennis, especially if I went D3. I would be very happy if D1 would let me. If the school would not let me play, I would still go if it had a good reputation. I am ranked highly in the USTA Southerns.
Money is not an issue right now, I am just browsing around</p>

<p>Plug your stats and requirements into the SuperMatch search engine here on CC and it will tell you how much of a match those schools are. CollegeBoard and College Navigator [College</a> Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics](<a href=“http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/]College”>College Navigator - National Center for Education Statistics) are also good to come up with lists AND to look at admissions statistics that will give you an idea where you stand (%accepted, mid 50% SAT/ACT scores).
You can enter specific schools you are interested in, in addition to having it search.</p>

<p>Have you considered Georgetown in DC? Great city to live in, a medical school and hospital adjacent to campus to do research and medical-related volunteering, decent weather - so tennis most of the year. (Div I tennis though). You are NOT applying for the ever popular International Relations and Political Science tracks which means your competition is less stiff (every future policy wonk wants to come here.) If Notre Dame and UVA are a fit culturally, then Georgetown works too.</p>
