So I’m a sophomore in high school and I am starting to figure out what colleges I might be interested in. One of the schools I am really interested in is Northwestern.

I am currently involved in Marching Band (I’ll be a section leader next year) and my school paper (currently the opinion editor) as well as some other random music related things (Pit Orchestra, a community honorsish band). I don’t think GPA will be a problem for me and I am taking the AP classes and such at my school…

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what else I should be doing so that when I do apply for colleges, I will have a good shot of getting into Northwestern? Can you also tell me a little bit about the school? I’ve read about it online, but it’d be nice to have the perspective of a…person lol.
