I am a junior in high school. I have about a 3.7 and will probably graduate with about that, maybe a little higher. I have not taken the ACT or SAT, i have, however taken the PSAT and the PACT. I got a 24 on the practice ACT as a sophomore, but my goal is to get above a 26. (in the high twenties) I have taken ACT prep classes, etc. I do feel that the SAT will be much easier for me, haven taken the PSAT. I haven't recieved my scores but they will be higher in comparison to my ACT scores I'm sure. I am on the girls varsity tennis team, I am in jazz band, I did participate in Marching Band, I have been on the honor roll through out highschool, I worked for the Obama campaign from august-november ( i was an intern,worked on average 3-4 hours a day 5 days a week), I take saxophone lessons, and I take dance classes and have since I was little. I am interested in philosophy, communications, humanities, spanish(favorite subject), and I am somewhat interested in politics. I hope to do a lot of volunteer work in college. Ideally, I'd like a mid-size college in a warm college-town with liberal students. But that does not mean I won't be able to handle other things. I live in Michigan. I am liberal, I like people who are intellectual and don't party all the time, but people who do know how to have fun. I made this list of colleges out of the Fisk Guide to Colleges 2009. I would VERY much appreciate it if anyone could give me any advice, or just give me any info about the following collegeS (it would be great if it was from a student that goes there!!) : American University- Wash DC. bard college- NY Bodwoin College- Brunswick, ME UC Santa Barbara, CA UC Santa Cruz, CA University of Colorado at Boulder Drew University- Madison, NJ The Evergreen State College- Olympia, Wa Geroge Washington University-Wash DC Gettysburg College- PA Hofstra University- Hempstead NY Indiana University- Bloomington, IN McGuill University- Quebec, Canada Ithaca College- Ithaca, NY Lewis and Clark College- Portland, OR University of Michigan Michigan State University of North Carolina- Asheville, NC North Carolina State University- Raleigh NC Oberlin College- Oberlin, OH University of Virginia- Charlottseville,VA University of Vermont- Burlington, VT...
