Nice job on the test!

Re: your admissions question, you need to decide what you think you want to do after school, where geographically you might want to be, what kinds of specialties or extra programs you want the school to have, etc. Then you need to research which programs are a good match for your goals.

You may benefit from talking with an admissions consultant to figure out how to make this decision - a good admissions consultant will ask you a bunch of questions to get you to articulate what you want and will be able to help you with the research as well.
