Run the supermatch engine on the left of this page.

You are an impressive candidate (with particularly nice perfect AP scores across diverse subjects) and will have many options. See if the University of Rochester or Cornell are close to what you have in mind.

Posting a list of your stats isn’t really going to tell us much about what would be a good fit for you. What kind of school do you want to go to? What size? In a city, the middle of nowhere, or something in between? Do you care about Greek life, sports, political leanings, religious affiliations, etc.?

@lalalemma the thing is, I’m very open to that kind of thing. religious affiliation doesn’t matter, I guess I’d prefer a larger school maybe suburban but I’d be fine city or rural too. I’m not interested in Greek life though, so I guess that’s one thing I should have mentioned- don’t want something TOO far south. political leanings? hmm, I’d prefer not too liberal but I think that’s hard to come across on campuses these days so in not focused on that either.

No financial constraints? State of residence?
