<p>I'm currently a sophomore girl at a selective admission Science and Technology (STEM) focused high school. I am a mostly A student, with a couple of A-'s here and there and one B+. I am also taking three AP level courses this year (AP Bio, CS, and BC Calculus), and plan to continue with 5-6 additional APs in my junior & senior years. As of now I have an SAT score of 2110, but I hope to get it up to the 2300 range by next year. </p>

<p>Besides from school, I am an officer of a Bioengineering club at my school, have been playing Piano and singing cultural music for 8 years (as well as competing), and participate in USA Biology Olympiad, Future Problem Solvers, am doing a research internship, etc.</p>

<p>I am interested in going into a research career w/ possible Biomedical Engineering, Biotech, or something similar for my undergrad.</p>

<p>Given my background, which US colleges would you recommend to look into/apply? (Tuition and distance from home is not a major factor)</p>

<p>Thank you very much in advance.</p>

<p>Do ask your parents to run the Net Price Calculators at the websites of several colleges and universities. Sometimes parents are surprised to learn how much colege costs, and price suddenly becomes a factor. It is better for you to find that out now, than second semesterof your senior year when it is almost too late.</p>

<p>Lots of choices (depending on finances though)…
