CAN I SLAY THE DRAGON?

<p>Dragon being:
-U Penn
-Tufts!!<<< looking quite nice so far
-Johns Hopkins
-Georgetown
-Cornell U</p>

<p>Here's my academic life in a nutshell:</p>

<p>I'm interested (well, interested is an understatement. Being an MD has been my dream since all eternity) in a strong premed program. It's also incredibly important that the school also has a good global/public health program, as I want that as my minor.</p>

<p>However, I don't just want a science heavy school. I love things like art history and writing, and would love a school that has quirky organizations like a quidditch team, or hacky sacking, or underwater tea parties. You get my drift? I love and thrive under competitiion, but I also want a good community feel where people like to have fun (and party hard) together.</p>

<p>Here are my credentials:
-founding president of Girls Who Code (getting underrepresented people, mostly women, into computer science)
-AP Classes and an advanced form of the IB program in which I have already received my diploma
-2100 SAT and will be taking SAT II in bio, mathii, and spanish
-founding president of global health coalition between 3 schools in my city, partnered with world-renowned research mentors and institutions, all to get high schoolers interested in making a difference in the global health community and taking on a global perspective to issues
-coach of unified soccer, a faction of special olympics to teach disabled students soccer and sportsmanship
-7 years of premiere (highest club level) soccer
-soccer captain
-member of all the classic high-achieving student clubs (key club, national honors society, blah blah blah)
-two years of varsity gymnastics, four years of varsity soccer
-peer mentorship to freshman struggling with getting acclimated to high school through Link Leaders
-top 3% of my class
-summer lab intern for biomedical engineering
-intern for epidemiology at a world-renowned university
-4.8 weighted gpa, 3.9 unweighted</p>

<p>If you 100% for sure want to go to ned school, pick the school offering a full ride. Med school applications are one of the few post graduate endeavors in which the prestige of your undergrad does not really matter. So save some money and make sure you stand out during undergrad.</p>

<p>But for sure you have a fighting chance at any of the above schools, especially tufts and JHU.</p>

<p>You are Ms. Saujani?</p>

<p>Hahaha I clicked because of the thread title :slight_smile:
I think you have good chances, your GPA and extracurriculars are very strong. How’d you do on AP/IB? I know these don’t really matter at all in college admissions, but a slew of 5’s in all your AP’s can’t hurt. Your SAT is also solid, Georgetown in particular looks at only CR+M so if your score is above 1400 or so you’ll be fine.
I don’t know what else to say, you’re a great applicant. Top schools are always hard to predict, but I’d say you’re in at Tufts and Georgetown, great chances at JHU, and good chances at UPenn/Cornell (this scale is not very scientific but I hope you understand what I mean). </p>

<p>your title and username fits together lol</p>
