<p>Good list of schools-might also look at Holy Cross-very good school 1 hour from Boston.</p>

4

<p>i dont really want to stay in the northeast if i can help it, but i heard it is beautiful there!</p>

<p>Bummmppppppp</p>

<p>What do you want to major in? Have you visited Hesse schools? They are very different. Big small, different geographies. Different cultures. Why apply in northeast if you don’t like it?
ECs scattered. What do you love? Answer these ?s and can give better advice.</p>

<p>Are you a native Spanish speaker?</p>

8

<p>no im not a native speaker, and yes i have visited a few of the schools on my list, the rest are just too far for me to see until i actually get in. i want to major in biology, and plan n being pre med. i like all of the schools for different reasons and for me as long as the school is not too small im ok with it. so wake is the smallest id go, but i wouldnt mind being at a large school like michigan. my parents are the reason for the schools in the northeast that im applying to, i like them, just not as much as the others (unc is my top choice). the reason why my ecs are scattered is because i just genuinely like doing all of those things. i love to write, but only for fun, hence the NCTE award, i am very good at spanish so my teacher had me do all of those competitions, i love doing research which is why i have invested so much time in that and so on. i honestly dont join things or do things for the sake of doing them, i just like to be busy and have a lot of interests.</p>
