<p>please help me on my chances, also please let me know of any other colleges you think I should apply to! I was thinking: Yale, Georgia Tech.....not sure where else....I want to go to stanford, but i might not get in (same with cal tech). I dont really want to go to my other three schools, but i will if it comes down to it. Anyway, i'm looking for a college between stanford and michigan. (stanford is tough to get in to, michigan is too big for me).</p>
<p>Financial aid is a factor, but my parents make combined 55k/yr, so I qualify for lots of need-based financial aid (at the prestegious schools. Also, USAFA is free)</p>
<p>Here is some other information about me:</p>
<p>I participate in: Football, track, band</p>
<p>I enjoy swimming, golfing, snowboarding, kayaking.</p>
<p>My favorite subject is science, closely followed by math. Specifically, I prefer Physics, then Chemistry, then Biology.</p>
<p>I know I want to be an engineer because I love to do puzzles and take things apart.</p>
<p>I'm thinking Environmental, chemical, or biomedical engineering.</p>
