<p>Wow! What a large and interesting collection of ECs! I can see that you have a variety of interests and an abundance of leadership roles. Colleges love that.
Your grades are solid, trust me. They may not be perfect, but given your surplus of ECs its entirely justifiable. Not to mention the fact that they are much much higher than a large majority of your grade.
I think the next step in your college search is to decide on an area to study. That will help you narrow down your daunting list of colleges even further. Based on the information you’ve shared I feel like you can be successful in whatever you apply yourself to.
In conclusion, it is my firm belief that the list of colleges is not unreasonable. I believe wholeheartedly that you can attend any of those colleges!</p>

<p>You are in at UMASS, UW, Lewis & Clark, Drexel, UVM and BU.</p>

4

<p>Also looking good for Champlain and Northeastern. Best of luck!</p>

<p>You have a nice list of colleges to consider. Some are safeties, some are reaches, and many are definitely matches. I agree with Propane and poi that Umass, UW, lewis and clark, drexel, uvm, bu, champlain, and northeastern all look good for you.</p>

<p>Do you have any preferences as to school size or location?
Are any of the colleges a dream school for you?</p>

6

<p>Columbia is definitely my dream school i wanted to go there since i was 5 and its basically everything i want. Its in a massive city and is in my range for school size (2,000-7,000).</p>

7

<p>If you don’t want a school smaller than 2,000, why Bowdoin?</p>
