<p>I like Brown, Tufts, Georgetown, and a lot of LACs. Any suggestions of which schools r too tough for me and which ones i could aim for? i know it's early but..o well.</p>
<p>Maybe it's just me, but a list of classes/grades and ECs don't really tell me that much about a person. Everything you've put here can be said of many other students.How can I possibly know which schools are too tough for you? Please don't think I'm trying to be rude. I just think that maybe you need to do some reflection on your own so you can at least get an idea of what direction you might be heading. Good luck</p>
<p>colleges don't like laundry lists</p>
<p>its a good thing i dont have one. im dedicated to all the activities im in and i only join activities i like. I already know that. And im just saying, based on my pure stats, which schools are out of my reach. not which schools could i not handle, which ones would i not be accepted to?</p>
<p>I'd say it's too early to tell. However, I think your Newspaper EC thing is supportive of your interests. Perhaps you should pursue more ECs that are writing-related as well--what about an essay contest, etc?</p>
<p>BTW I just flinched for some odd reason when I saw my username there, Lol. It's like: Whoa! That guy cited me!</p>
<p>How does being agnostic at a Catholic school work out for you?</p>
<p>(Out of curiosity, not for college. :P)</p>
<p>Yeahh agnostics.</p>
<p>(And drummers. Drummers are hot.)</p>
<p>First of all, I'm so sorry about agnostic + Catholic school...atheist in Texas here, it's basically the same conflict, hah.</p>
<p>Secondly: grades are looking good, definitely aim for leadership positions in the clubs. Any particular field you want to focus on? Most of your activities look humanities-oriented...</p>
