<p>< jhu class of 2016 >
well, i have never chanced students before ^^
try your best within your limits to ace the sat and ap…
admission decisions are very mysterious…</p>
<p>try to have one super outstanding ec?
make sure you know and show your deep knowledge of your interest (biomedical engineering)
… college applications are just going to get more and more competitive</p>
<p>I’ll be interning next summer (2013 summer) and work at a hospital?</p>
<p>Will those two work? >.< Where else can you do do biomed?</p>
<p>Kimmylouie, a TON of my friends are BME’s. One thing they all said was that the BME admission person really looks favorably on research. Your internship at the hospital will help a bit, but I recommend contacting a local college and see if there are any research opportunities. Since you’re such a good student (and a fairly strong candidate for JHU), most community colleges would be happy to take you on for research. My sister’s also a rising Junior and plans to apply to JHU for BME. I think she may be doing this research program at Duke. Maybe you could look into that (if you’re close enough).
Also, don’t quote me on this, but I think most colleges rather you use teachers from your Junior and Senior year as recommendations since they are the ones that know you best at the moment you are applying. </p>
<p>But beyond that, just keep up the good work! And remember- Everything boils down to how well you sell/present yourself in your essays. Good luck!</p>
