I am currently going to be a senior in high school, and have picked out several schools that appealed to me after on/offline touring. Do you think I am better suited for one or more of these school and which ones do I have a chance at getting into?

Your a great candidate for i would say all of those schools..your GPA is really good and your ACT score is AMAZING..a 30 on the ACT is really hard to get..in fact, the average ACT score is between 24-28..so your score is obviously above and beyond..ur extracurriculars are splendid as well. You were involved in a lot of clubs/sports AND were in leadership positions...so id say go for it, cuz youll get in :) Best of luck!
