<p>Hey everyone. I'm finishing up my Junior Year so as you all know its time to find the right colleges. In my mind I have some ideal schools to look after but taking a step back looking at my list it seems pretty thin and im having problems finding realistic chance schools that i would actually like to attend</p>
<p>so.. here are some stats and such and id appreciate it if anyone could post some thoughts on it</p>

<p>GPA: 4.0 unweighted/ like 4.3 weighted</p>
