<p>I am interested in attending a medium to large sized school in an urban or suburban area that has strong programs in Physics, Biology and Engineering.</p>

<p>In which state do you live?</p>

3

<p>some suggestions: Rice, Johns Hopkins, Emory, USC, Vanderbilt, UT-Austin, UNC</p>

4

<p>USC, NYU, UNC, Virginia, Michigan</p>

<p>just bump those SATs up over 2000 and you should be good at all those schools above.</p>

<p>I live in SW Florida.</p>

6

<p>Johns Hopkins is great. And their average GPA is 3.6. But no kidding, they are ranked 13th, tied with Cornell.</p>

7

<p>Duke, Tufts, Holy Cross, Hopkins, Northwestern.</p>

8

<p>Carnegie Mellon, Johns Hopkins, Bucknell, Lehigh, WUSTL, Rice, Harvey Mudd, Georgetown, Wesleyan (they're re-emphasizing their sciences after years of "the arts"), Chicago -- in addition to what others have suggested ---</p>

<p>Emory...my stats were fairly similiar to yours and I was accepted. I live in Florida as well.</p>
