<p>Thank you informative! I do want to be in the boston area, but I’ll go to anyone of those schools if accepted. I’m really considering swapping Columbia for Barnard. This is my favorite list, and i think I’ll eliminate four more schools (upenn, Howard, BU, and RPI) thank you, I’m nervous about the ACT & subject tests, mainly the subjects. I’ll feel better once those are over and I do well (September is retake month)</p>
