<p>You have quite a few things that are going to catch the eye of an ADCOM, especially for MSB. Your EC’s with No Free Lunch Club (Economics Club) & Economics Council National Economic Challenge team show a demonstrated interest in business. Your volunteer work falls in line with Georgetown’s philanthropic spirit of service and giving back to the community. I think what will really capture their attention is that you taken 4 years of TWO rather difficult foreign languages (Japanese and Chinese), especiallly if plan to continue one of them at Georgetown.</p>

<p>Here is more information about the pre-med track for undergrads for you. [Undergraduate</a> Pre-Medical Studies at Georgetown - Pre-Medical Studies at Georgetown - Georgetown College](<a href=“http://premed.georgetown.edu/undergrad/]Undergraduate”>http://premed.georgetown.edu/undergrad/) It seems like it is totally doable with any undergrad degree program. By the end of this year, you should have enough AP credit (providing you get 4s/5s) to really free up some time to take those pre-med courses. </p>

<p>SAT/ACT scores are not everything BUT I’m glad you are re-taking the SAT. Hopefully you can get that up a bit, especially the Math score for MSB. Take some time to craft those essays you’ll have to write and get great teacher rec’s who can really attest not only to your academic contributions to classes but your contributions to your larger school/neighborhood communities as well.</p>
