<p>First off, I’d like to say thanks for the help. Secondly, my apologies, entomom – we weren’t thinking of the same university. What was going through my head was Santa Clara University, but what came out on the keyboard was Santa Cruz.</p>
<p>So, I did a little more research and I hopefully came up with a well-balanced list. Bearing in mind there are a few modifications that will be made to my resume, I’m certainly not confident on a major, but also that 09 is supposed to be an incredibly competitive year, I would hope that this is a reasonable range of schools to be applying to. There are some major reaches on there, but hey, we don’t get anywhere without dreams, do we? Let me know if there’s anything that strikes you that I should add. Cheers!</p>
