<p>@snarlatron It is actually after visiting each of those schools that I have formulated this list. I can adapt to whichever environment I am put into. I’m a diverse person with a diverse range of interests and for this reason will thrive in a variety of different schools. I’m only 17 years old; I don’t know what I’ll want for the coming 4 years of my undergraduate experience. Thus, I’ve chosen very different schools and am leaving chance to decide my experience for the next 4 years. Of course all these school fulfill some criteria, but I do realize they are quite different. This is intentional. </p>
