<p>I'm running out of time for college apps ive applied to a few schools but I don't think I made the right decisions. Here's why I have a 3.2 gpa 1880 on sat 23 act also I have a very rigorous schedule for school all Ap and Ac classes I am involved in alot of activities outside school especially voluntaring all over Michigan and I'm president of a school organization focused on closing the achievement gap. My problem is I am just plain lost. With the grades I have I'm sure I can get into. Then I can't figure out what to even do. I have been told by professors, teachers and many adults that i am brilliant but each of the people i have talked to suggested a different thing from public office law medicine physics writing psychology engineering and buisness. I personally think I am an intelligent person but my flaws have hurts grades. I am interested in almost everything listed but I want my tea dream is to start a new age technology company. My personal intrests are working on electronics I fix computers xboxs anything running software psps radios anything along that line, I even have a kind of underground buisness where people pay me to fix their stuff which brings in quite a bit of money respectively. I am always the go to guy when things are broken and everything I know I taught myself but the thing is this applies to everything people suggest I do, i ran a little comic enterprise in the 5th grade complete with memberships and I had a few friends working for me with pay. But enough writing someone help me here I'm sowly burning myself out with this process.</p>
<p>Advice: Make better use of the enter key. Nobody likes big blocks of text like that.
With your GPA/scores you could probably get into MSU and other in-state public schools besides UMich.</p>
<p>Look into Purdue, Iowa and RIT. Use your SAT scores.</p>
<p>Look into engineering, business, and even industrial design programs.</p>
<p>Thank you I'll look into those schools apologies for the long message I left here</p>
<p>My advice: Study philosophy. I am having a similar dilemna, one of feeling that I am terribly brilliant and have such an abundance of choices ahead that it is almost maddening.</p>
<p>I think though, that going into philosophy is the right choice for a thinker, for a genius. Because, like I am a musician. I'm a community activist. I'm also an entrepaneur. I run a business and I have all these different interests. But, what really matters in this life? This is the question we have to ask ourselves. And I think that for most of us the answer is this: What's important is the existence and preservation of ourselves, our Mother Earth, and our universe containing all of it's creatures, marvels and wonders. Thus, I am almost certain that a study of this wisdom in and of itself will give you the education that you will seek and require. Philosophy (or maybe enviromental studies; because our world is in danger) will give you the thinking techniques and background you may need to fulfill your role. </p>
<p>Beware though: "He who increaseth in wisdom, shall also increaseth in sorrow"</p>
