I am about to begin my senior year and I am creating this thread to hopefully get a better understanding of the schools that I should be applying to relative to my statistics, activities, etc. I would prefer west coast schools, but this is not vital. If somebody could give me advice for reach, realistic, and safety schools I would be very grateful, thanks.
