CR: 700, M: 740, W: 740, T: 2180 </p>

<p>I'm taking my SAT IIs in November so don't have any scores for them yet. </p>

<p>I know there’s other factors like the recommendation letters and essay, but with these statistics, what schools do you think I should look into? </p>

<p>Here are my interests: </p>

<p>A place with good laboratory research programs
A double-major in English and Biology or English and Chemistry (undecided right now)
Somewhere in the Northeast, preferably between Massachusetts and New York (I'm from NY)
Place where I can work in the labs with teachers and do research
A place with a good pre-med reputation</p>

<p>If anything relates, please recommend it and I'll look into it. I've been seriously procrastinating...</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>UChic and Tufts both have some of the best undergrad biology programs.
Anything medicine, Johns Hopkins is going to be your best (and most difficult) bet for the northeast.
And check out RPI’s premed program, it’s super difficult to get into but they have some super special partnership with some grad schools that lets you get some great benefits… not really sure what, but you can look into that.</p>

<p>Good luck! You have great stats, a 2180 first time around is nigh- unheard of.</p>

<p>i agree with the previous post. i know BU has a 7 year accelerated med program, so that might be a good option</p>

<p>if you could, please chance back :slight_smile: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1225356-compsci-schools-students-bad-stats-like-me-uc-chancers-please-look.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1225356-compsci-schools-students-bad-stats-like-me-uc-chancers-please-look.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>You could look into some accelerated/multiple degree programs that colleges offer. They are all very selective, but you seem qualified.</p>
