<p>Not bad ;)</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins may not accept you for Biomedical Engineering, but guessing from you course selections you seem like a good candidate for Arts and Sciences. </p>

<p>Do you know what major you want to pursue?</p>

<p>You kind of lack the AP/IB classes, but you have some good College Classes to somewhat balance that, but AP/IB emphasis is clearly lacking. Your level of coursework is kind of abysmal (no offense). Having said that you still have a decent shot.</p>

<p>Apply EARLY DECISION of you REALLY want to come here (I'm a JHU '12er ;))</p>

<p>No Subject Tests? No SAT?
Your ACT isn't "bad" but, you should probably take 3 subject Test to make your App. more competitive. Don't worry about the SAT. Other than that you're good.</p>

<p>Hope this helps :)</p>

3

<p>im looking at international relations. does that make me more competative?</p>

4

<p>^well, take the 3 Subject Tests and get decent scores (720ish) on them, and then yes, you'll prob. be "competitive"</p>

5

<p>also applying to G'town and UMich. any thoughts?</p>

<p>UMich: probably in its your state right?
G-Town: very good school for law and stuff, little better chance than JHU...</p>
