<p>I'd really like to learn about more schools. I'd appreciate it if you could suggest safeties and matches, even a couple of reaches for me.</p>

<p>Here is some information about me:</p>

<p>SAT: 2280, I only took it once and will retake it. I got a 800 on CR.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.7+, but I also go to a very competitive magnet school. No one has ever gotten a 4.0 in my school.</p>

<p>EC: Two leadership positions (one on the newspaper), lots of volunteering, lab research, and I have organized several community outreach and advocacy programs. I also have a job. I'm in NHS and the Science Honor Society.</p>

<p>These are the states I'm looking at: NY, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. No rural areas, though, please.</p>

<p>Please let me know if you'd like more information. I'm aware that I'm not guaranteed admission anywhere; I'd just like to learn about more schools.</p>

<p>Thank you so much for all of your help!</p>

<p>Most probably premed, although I will probably major in English, history, or political science.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>if you get a princetonreview.com account and go take the survey here: [Test</a> Prep: GMAT, GRE, LSAT, MCAT, SAT, ACT, and More](<a href=“http://www.princetonreview.com/com.aspx]Test”>http://www.princetonreview.com/com.aspx)</p>

<p>you get some results that tell you how well some schools fit you. Not completely accurate but there are some really good ideas from the survey.</p>

5

<p>Georgetown (If you would consider DC alright locationwise) or Tufts. I think those are good low reaches.</p>

<p>For safeties I would say Providence and Villanova. BC is a good match.</p>

<p>Take a shot at one or two Ivies.</p>
