<p>As a Senior, I never really posted on here, but heres my situation:</p>
<p>I'm a freshman at a top 25 LAC where I got in ED. Long story short, my parents wanted me to explore my option to more competetive schools, and I wimped out. But now that I'm at a very good school, the little voice in my head has me wondering if I would have gotten in. I like it here all right, but I didn't really have a good idea of what I wanted to study, but now do (Geography, Urban Planning, Econ). I also am not satisfied with the town or the habitual party scene. I can explain all of this in my transfer essay / interviews. </p>
<p>HS record:
3.9 GPA including 5 total AP classes, (Senior Year I designed my own AP Independent Study in Geography and ended up nailing it.) I had the most difficult schedule in my high school class getting mostly B+s and A-s. I was the king of extra curriculars serving as a member on my state board of education, the governor's advisory council on Education, president of my class for 3 years, and serving on my local board of ed. My reccs reflected this ambition and is by far my most distinguishing quality. What I got nervous about were my scores: ACT 25, writing 11, only decent SAT II was US His: 660, Math I: 530 and Spanish 560. I took AP Micro / Macro online and got 3s, a 3 in Spanish Language, and a 3 in US History. I got a 5 in my Independent Study AP Geog. </p>
<p>I interview very well and will hopefully get solid recs. My college is on a weird schedule, so if I had to guess I'll probably have about a B+ schedule as I apply for Fall 08 as a Sophmore.</p>
<p>Need people's advice on the following schools: U. Chicago, Northwestern, Dartmouth and Middlebury.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
