<p>I'm trying to get a list together of schools that I can reasonably get into. My grades/SAT are very average, but I think I have some decent EC's. EC's are important to me, because I didn't pick them for college, I picked them for myself. I'm not the type of person who picks 100 clubs, I picked a couple things I am interested in, and am very dedicated to them. My career goal is something along the lines of law/politics/criminal justice. My plans are either to go to law school, or the military after college. </p>
