thoughts on my college list???
I'm really tempted to narrow my list down a little bit since 20 colleges is definitely a lot (or at least switching out a few) :')
For some background on me, I'm an IB student from socal with an UW 3.67 GPA and a W 4.3 GPA. I've taken mostly honors, AP, and IB classes all throughout high school. My ECs are definitely ehh, but I do have a few research papers in progress, a charity fundraising event I'm organizing, I tutor, and I'm working on a health literacy initiative for my high school. I plan on going to med school to become a radiologist, so a good number of my schools are based on opportunities to prepare for that, alongside location. I'm first generation, low income, so I'm honestly looking for any school that'll give a generous amount of aid ':)
List:
UC Davis, UC Riverside, UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara, Cal Baptist Uni, Santa Clara Uni, UH Manoa, Pepperdine, U Rochester, Fordham, Vanderbilt, Stanford, Emory, Brown, Rice, UMich, Boston U, Notre Dame, Case Western Reserve, and USC
currently UC Davis and USC are my top options.. but UMich has been calling my name sooo hard recently
I'm really open to any advice!! so pretty please help me I have sm anxiety about college :')
