<p>So it has come time to apply to colleges, but I still have not completely finalized my list. I have my early schools finalized, but don't know all of the RD schools that I'm going to apply to. First I'll put my stats/profile...</p>
<p>Top 10% of class in high school in NJ (400ish people in my class)
GPA: 3.9886 UW (4.3 for A+), 4.53 W (5.3 for A+) (pretty sure it's still considered a 4.0 and 5.0 scale, but not too sure)</p>
<p>SAT:
Superscore - 1500/2300 (700 cr/800 m/800 w)
Best sitting - 2260 (700/760/800)
PSAT: 204 (commended, notified BC and Northwestern)
ACT: 35 composite (34 writing, 36 math, 35, 35)</p>
<p>Senior year schedule:
Physics H, English 4A, AP Spanish, Gym, AP Econ, AP Stat, AP Calc BC, Independent study: portfolio of newspaper stories I'm going to write</p>
<p>ECs:
- Newspaper: Feature editor (10, 11, 12), copy editor (9)

<p>(In deadline order) </p>
<p>Northwestern University (ED)
University of Virginia (EA)
University of Michigan (EA)
University of Wisconsin (EA)
UC - Berkeley
UC - Los Angeles
Boston College
Cornell University
UNC - Chapel Hill
Georgetown
BU/GWU as another safety (Wisconsin would be my first choice safety)</p>
<p>I am a prospective Econ major, but I'm also interested in math/statistics and foreign languages. My two main decisions were UNC v. Georgetown and BU v. GWU (have yet to visit BU), but I could also throw UVA into the UNC v. GTown debate. </p>
<p>I can't really decide which one to apply to - both have their pros and cons, and I wouldn't mind going to either. Is it crazy to apply to 11 schools and let the admissions office make the decision for me, or should I just make the decision now so I don't even have to choose in April?</p>
<p>(PS Northwestern is my #1, if I get in there, I go)</p>
<p>Thanks for any help!</p>
