<p>What is the most important for me to improve before applying to colleges next fall? What does my profile lack the most? Thanks so much!</p>

<p>oh and I’ll probably be majoring in Biology.</p>

<p>I would try to raise your GPA to the 3.7-3.8 range if possible. ALso, a 2200+ SAT would probably help your application. The legay at WASH U should help, in any event. Good luck!</p>

<p>thanks! anyone else?</p>
