<p>I retook the ACT after getting a 26 and just found out that I got a 29. This put some of my match schools more toward the safetie range, so I was wondering if you could give some ideas on some good match schools with my stats.</p>
<p>I'd like to go somewhere in the midwest and major in advertising or marketing. Here's my list as it is now.</p>
<p>Big reach: Notre Dame
slight Reach: Illinois (Liberal Arts and Sciences)
Matches: Marquette, Indiana
safetie: Illinois State, Iowa</p>
<p>GPA: Wieghted= 3.71, unweighted= 3.6
ACT: 29
rank: 229/768 top 29% at one of the better public high schools in Illinois</p>
<p>EC's:</p>
