Okay guys, I know everyone posts these kind of questions but I really need some help here. I need to start seriously looking at a few colleges to apply to ED or EA this coming winter but I'm not sure how high I should aim. My gpa is about a 97 (w) which I know doesn't really mean anything because it is weighted. I've taken 5 AP measures and all of my classes are Honors if they are not AP. I have a few extra curriculars that I devote most of my time to and they are decently well rounded (NHS President; Mentor for Big Brothers Big Sisters; French Club President; etc.) I know this isn't a lot of information to go on but any help or ideas would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!

We're not mind readers you know... 
Take your combined SAT score and start loooking at schools in the geographic area you are interested in. Look for schools that have the characteristics you like (size, popular majors, student body, etc.)
Pick schools where your SAT score and GPA make some sense in terms of how students at that school stand.
Do you like Liberal Arts colleges or universities? Only you can be the judge of all these things. Do you have financial need? Will the school meet most of it? What percentage of students graduate in four years? Lots of things for you to consider!
Try not to pay too much attention to all the schools that everyone is talking about. Pick the ones that seem to be a good match for you. If your favorite one of the whole batch has an ED program, you might consider it,
