<p>Hi, I come from a middle class family, and I go to a small but competitive private school in town. I'm a rising senior, so I'm putting together my list of colleges, and I just recently developed a strong interest in Notre Dame. I would attend as a pre-med student, possibly with a major in music. If not music, it would probably just be plain old biology. My list of schools so far consists of LA Tech, LSU, Texas A&M, TCU, UNC Chapel Hill, Duke, William and Mary, University of Richmond, Vanderbilt, Rhodes College, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and of course Notre Dame. Anyway, I would greatly appreciate any comments or advice!</p>
