I would major in something in business- perhaps business admin.- but I'm not 100% sure. What schools on this list can I get into? What ranking #'s should I be looking at?

To be harsh, I think you'd be lucky to make it into the top 30 or 40. Your ACT shows that you're a smart kid with good test-taking abilities, but to show up next to a 3.3 is confusing and many would assume you just don't care that much. The 20-30 most selective schools in the country can easily turn you away on those grounds alone.
Also, to say you're interested in business is pretty unremarkable for an admissions committee. Millions of people in this country pursue business, and it's a field that is only getting more globally competitive by leaps and bounds every year. Surely there will be foreign kids from all over the world that can score a 31, but also work hard enough for a 4.0 or close to it. That's just the way the world works now.
You should apply to whichever school interests you. Just being brutally honest.

31 is realy high
you should def get in your local colleges
but if colleges such as duke,michigan, or harvard is involve-they might look at other things then jus grades and scores

never really joined curricular activities tho. and got denied to uiversity of michigan
