<p>It being August before my senior year, I thought I should start to narrow down the colleges I have before me, on my "potential schools" list. I've given my stats, intended major, then my list. Thanks for any input =] </p>

Ranked in top 1-5%, won’t know until Sept ’07</p>
<p>Classes:
**Entered HS w/ credits based on accelerated middle school program. This would, under normal circumstances, be beneficial—however—due to the strict scheduling and general small size of my school, I was occasionally forced to take non-honors courses, though they were with the grade subsequent to my own. I have taken/registered for all A.P classes offered by school (other than Spanish, due to Latin track) and highest level of language.</p>
