<p>My essays, teacher recs, and counselor recs are all good.</p>

<p>I'm applying to the following BS/MD programs:
Brown
USC
Case Western
Wayne State</p>

<p>Also, does could anyone else suggest some other good BS/MD programs that are within my reach?</p>

<p>I’m not the most informed person about these dual BS/MD accelerated programs, but I know they are usually very hard to get into. I also want to become a MD, but I’m going to do the traditional 4 year undergrad/apply to medical school route.
I’m not trying to be too critical, but:</p>

<p>-you did a good job on all your AP’s. But since medicine is heavy on sciences, you should probably try to take AP Biology and AP Chemistry your senior year
-unweighted GPA is great but I think some of the top accelerated programs such as Brown look for 3.9–>4.0
-SAT is great maybe try to break 2200
-the research lab/hospital jobs will definitely look good on the application
-You’ll probably need to take SAT 2 Subj. tests in Math, Biology, Chemistry, physics?? (Unless you have the AP tests)</p>

<p>Like I said I don’t know too much about these programs or the requirements for each. This is just some info I’ve picked up about any accelerated program, as they’re usually very competitive and demanding. Your app is great though and i’m sure if you don’t do an accelerated program you’ll have a strong undergrad performance to get u into medical school</p>

<p>I don’t think you have a shot simply because there are very few BS/MD slots open. It’s there because the schools want to recruit you before you run off to Harvard Med after you complete an undergrad degree… That being said, if you’re a good candidate for HYPS, then you may be a good candidate in these programs but I don’t see that in your profile.</p>
