Answer
Aayush,

I am afraid that I can not answer your question with the information provided. Choosing a college is a very personal decision as there are over 3,000 colleges in the US. You need to decide what you want from a college first, size, location, learning style, that sort of thing,  and then find a college that fits your needs.

Anyone who suggests a college without knowing more about you and what you are looking for is not giving you good advice.

Once you have decided what you might want from a college then I would suggest that you go to the website College Navigator. http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/

This website allows you to put in information about what you are looking for in a college as well as information about your test scores and it will give you a list of colleges that meet your needs.

I hope that helps you find the right college for your needs.
