<p>I am a junior beginning to look at colleges, and the process is so overwhelming! I am unsure as to how to proceed--I would like to attend a prestigious liberal arts school, but beyond that I really have no idea what schools I should start looking at. I would really appreciate help! </p>
<p>I have a 3.86 gpa with honors math and AP bio, I do one varsity sport (volleyball), play the flute in an honors type band and pit orchestra, and do a lot of independent creative writing and independent essay writing. I won the NCTE writing competition and a few poetry competitions at my school. I have also hiked all 48 mountains over 4000 feet in NH (probably my college essay). My SAT scores are 800 critical reading, 680 math (ugh) and 780 verbal.</p>
