<p>Your summer ECs are impressive, but yeah, take the SATs and ACT again. And your GPA’s not that impressive either. All you can do at this point is to, again, improve your standardized test scores and write an impressive essay about your passion…or w/e lol</p>

<p>Thanks for the input, my GPA will have a little room to improve in the first semester. I had a really bad junior year.</p>

<p>oooh… i see that ‘school said i was involved in too many clubs’ … i’m curious too, why do you join so many clubs and organizations? and seeing that your GPA and scores are a bit low, it kinda looks like one of those people who just wanna do so many things as opposed to do a few but excell in them. or perhaps serious about other things but school work? gotta write some good essays here…</p>

<p>that’s what my stats would’ve looked like, actually, until i cut down on the clubs and focused on just ones i really enjoy and am serious about, and turn the rest of my focus on academics.</p>

<p>Sorry, I’ve been away for too long. I’m actually a freshman Meyerhoff scholar, and looking at your stats, I’d say you stand a very fair chance at making it to Selection Weekend, even potentially becoming a scholar. Speaking from experience, if you make it to Selection Weekend, evaluation criteria are no longer about numbers; rather, staff (and students) want to see how you handle yourself in both professional and casual settings. But just going solely off your EC’s and research experience, you should be fine! Best of luck!</p>

<p>ur stats are weak and most bs/md programs have cut-offs but for all the other schools, ur not a bad candidate with ur EC’s…</p>
