<p>Hi. I’m currently a high school sophomore and I’m trying to start the search for schools that I could get in to/reaches/safeties… basically, schools that would be right for me. I live in Massachusetts and am interested in psychology and sociology. It’d also be nice if the schools suggested have any sort of art program, since I’d like to take an art class or two. Or creative writing classes. It should also be LGBT fine and I’d like if it were on the East Coast, no further south than Virginia. Anywhere in the UK would be fine as well. I like being by water…</p>
<p>Money… will be a problem. Financial aid and merit aid and inexpensive costs would be nice.</p>
<p>SATs: I got a 144 on my PSAT but I recently got a 1540 on a practice test that my school sponsered and I know I can raise the grade up further. I’m taking the June SAT.</p>
<p>GPA: 90.5% Unweighted, about a 95% Weighted.
Top 15%-ish of my class of a little over 100 students.</p>
