<p>i just finished my junior year of highschool and i am looking to apply to 8 or 7 year combined medical programs. my top choices right now are stony brook 8 year, sophie davis, downstate 8 year, suny albany combined program, and rpi's combined medical program.
my gpas for all three years thus far: (unweighted)<br>
freshman year- 91.9
Sophmore year- 90.8
junior year- 93.0</p>
<p>i have taken 3 aps and all honors so far, and i am taking 6 ap classes next year. this year i doubled up on science and took honors physics and ap biology. i am the only person in my grade to do this. </p>
<p>my sat score right now is a 2140 with a combined math and reading of 1380. i plan on getting the math and reading up to at least a 1530 (fingers crossed) because i feel like my sat scores are the only thing that can compensate for my abysmal grades.
i havent gotten my sat II scores back yet but hopefully they will be good. i took bio, us, and math II</p>
<p>I also plan on taking an ACT in the fall because sophie davis requires both. </p>
<p>i have about 200 hours of community service at a hospital in brooklyn doing work in the ER.
i have also been enrolled in my schools research program for the last 3 years </p>
<p>my extracurriculars include
- 3 years track, scholar athlete for all seasons
-president of medical explorers club
-captain in science olympiad club
member of speech and debate team </p>
<p>I also won two minor art competitions in the past, but they were realllly minor
in addition, since 2004 i have used part of my lunch money to sponsor a child in bangladesh in order to send him to school and give him money for school supplies ( this was done through distressed childrens international) </p>
<p>my family background-im of south asian descent, and both my parents and my eldest sister are doctors</p>
<p>my eldest sister was accepted into the downstate program but declined for cornell undergrad. i dont know if this will have any effect on my acceptance.</p>
<p>im also traveling abroad with my school this summer for a 2 week cultural program in china and i am involved in the foreign exchange program in our school regarding the chinese students</p>
<p>i also forgot to mention that i go to a very competitive highschool in a very competitive part of the country</p>
