-you might want to think of playing some lesser known excerpts (of course they must demonstrate the same things the well-known ones do)

-some schools have specific requirements-check those

-I have no idea what kind of player you are, but think long and hard about doing the Tomasi (notice I didn't say "don't do it")

best of luck
