<p>Hi guys....i was wondering if anyone could help me out on school i should start looking at. I'm a high school junior who goes to a prominent public high school in ny. I"m looking for a school that is competitive but not cut-throat, location does not matter to me, but i'd prefer that a school close to or in a city. Here are some of my stats:</p>

<p>gpa: 4.4 weighted (don't know what the unweighted is)
Rank: i think it is within the 10% or less
sats: aiming to get between a 2000-2100
sat II's: 680 bio, 590 math 1c
-5 on ap euro exam
-in every honors or ap class possible (1 soph year, 2 this year, 6 next year)</p>

<p>Extra curriculars:
varsity spring track all 3 years
tutor spanish weekly
have done numerous community service activities
vice prez of temple youth group
league/school soccer (9th and 10th grade)
national honor society
two other clubs</p>

<p>I would greatly appreciate anyone's advice/ comments...thanks!</p>

<p>LACs are Liberal Arts Colleges...meaning they are really small colleges that focus more on a liberal arts curriculum. It is a place to be yourself. The catch? The catch is that these sorts of colleges are priced in the ranges of the Ivies...meaning you have to be rich, or lucky.</p>
