Use this to help you decide, Enter all the criteria and boom, you will have your list.</p>
<p>What do you want from a school?</p>
<p>What do we think? We don’t know anything about you other than your grades and activities! Yes, you’ve got good grades, but that just means that you could fit in academically at a wide range of schools. Do you want a big school/ small? what do those words mean to you? Do you want to be in a particular region or state? religious or secular? You ask what we think, and honestly, I think you want us to look at your grades and tell you to go to Andover or Exeter. And maybe one of those schools is right for you, but it won’t be just because of your grades, it will be because of who you are. so tell us where you want to apply, and start asking questions on the threads of those schools and find out for yourselves. </p>
<p>internet strangers cannot pick a school for you.</p>
