<p>Just finished my junior year and got my report card the other day. My graduating class has 78 students... And I'm ranked fifth. </p>
<p>I really want to go somewhere... "accomplished," but I don't know my chances are (that is why I'm here :P). </p>
<p>Some quick stats:</p>
<p>Like I said, I'm 5/78 at the moment (at a rural public school)
My unweighted gpa is 3.66
My ACT score was 31, and I plan on taking again in the fall (hopefully it will go up)
34 Reading
31 English
29 Science
29 Math
31 Writing
9 Essay
