<p>Hi! You know my grade, but what is more important perhaps is my location. I'm from a town in the Panhandle of Texas that has just over 4,000 people. I'm currently evaluating a tentative college list I have as I prepare for the year before the big year. I'll post my current standing and junior/senior schedules to help form an idea in your reader's mind. It my help to know that my prospective majors may be Music and Chemistry with minors in Theater and Classics. Those, however, are subject to change as I change. I plan on attending graduate school and then medical school. I'm certain that finances are not a big concern, but let's just establish this now that private schools that do not meet at least 50% of demonstrated need are not good. If you would please input your suggestions or thoughts as to the list I would appreciate it (my main concern is trimming it down)!</p>
<p>Statistics:
Rank-1/93
GPA-4.0 UW and 4.65/5.0W (state-required classes combined with unweighted classes without an alternative drag your GPA down at my high school during 9th and 10th grade)

<p>I won't go heavily into extracurricular activity, but I am as involved in choir, theater, debate, and academic competition that I can be at my high school. Now realize that national competition isn't available from my high school in any area, but I have nearly received the highest award possible in every activity at the state level. </p>
<p>Now my college list is centered around the idea that the worst that can happen is they can reject me. If you can't change it, then accept and embrace it. Here it is:</p>
<p>Rice University*
Northwestern University*
University of Texas-Austin*
Oberlin College*
Columbia University
The Juilliard School*
Harvard University
New England Conservatory*
Johns Hopkins University*
University of Southern California*

<p>I sincerely thank you for your time and thoughts!</p>
