<p>Hi I'm new to the forums. I am a 16 year old junior male from Maryland. These are my uh credentials.</p>

<p>3.6 unweighted gpa
4.35 weighted gpa
2 AP's so far: got 4's on both of them
I am taking 5 AP classes this year for 7 Credits (Econ is 2 and so is Physics)
I took a SAT in October and got
Math: 770
Reading: 690
Writing: 660
Total: 2120
I retook my SAT on January 27 so my results should be coming in soon
PSAT Final Score was:
2130
I was freshman and sophomore class president
I am a junior varsity member of the debate
I am a member of the Math team and It's Academic Team
I am a newspaper Section Editor and will most likely be chief editor next year.
I interned at University of Maryland Baltimore Center for Vascular and Inflammatory Diseases Last summer
I am going to intern at NIH this summer
I got into a GT program when i was in fourth grade...not sure if that means anything.</p>

<p>I am looking at either a double major with either Economics or Journalism coupled with either Physics, Biology, or Engineering, a 6 year pre med, or a top business school. </p>

<p>If anyone could let me know what schools I should be looking at, that would be great</p>

<p>Well, it really depends on what type of school you would want to go to. You could probably get into a highly prestigious school...but it depends on what type of school you want and where you would like it. Do you want a huge university in a major city? Or a smaller school in a remote town?</p>

<p>The best place for you to go to is <a href="http://www.review.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.review.com&lt;/a>. Go to the "Counselor-O-Matic" and see what results you get.</p>

<p>I prefer a large college. I am more of an outgoing guy and an interesting person ( I think), so I mean I don't think I'd fit in a small school. I am also into sports so a school with all the sports would be very interesting to me as compared to a college like Emory, a very good school but no football team.</p>

<p>I don't really have authority to speak, but if you were on the West Coast, I'd have told you University of Washington. I know where your coming from, and I'd seriously say that you should look at a larger state school, or such.</p>

<p>A small LAC would not fit at all.</p>

<p>^^ Very true.</p>

<p>Large state schools offer all of your major choices usually. So do some large privates. Find out what type of location you are interested in, and then go from there.</p>

<p>USC comes to mind. Great football team and particularly strong in engineering, journalism, and business.</p>

<p>You could also consider Stanford, though it would be a reach.</p>

<p>Michigan would be another good choice. Boston College rounds out my suggestions.</p>
