I have posted on here before and I got many inputs which helped me figure out what would really help me out in the long run
Well… I know that I want to go to a medical school to study psychiatry later on
GPA freshman year(even though they probably won’t look at that): 4.0 [couldn’t take ANY honors or AP classes]
GPA this year (sophomore now) :4.17 [one B in honors Chem, APEURO]
from this semester :definitely will try to get it up and continue it there to 4.5!
PSAT score I know that it’s terrible :157 will DEFINITELY raise [planning to go to SAT prep school in LA]
about 5 years of fencing experience
3 awards/medals
about 200 hours volunteering at a same library for about 4 years?
so…
what are my chances at:
University of Pittsburgh
NYU
UCSF
(and high reach but dream school) Duke
Please chance me?
No one can chance you at this point. You don’t have standardized test scores. You don’t have a GPA. and you really don’t have ECs.
If you want me to chance you as of right now this is what it’s going to look like.
University of Pittsburgh: Reach
NYU: High high reach
UCSF: idk
Duke: high high high reach
Currently you’re SAT is a 1570, and you have 2 activities with no leadership positions.
Are you expecting someone to change you based on what you’ll do in the future? Because that’s not possible.
If you want a more accurate (but still poor) indicator, give some predictions for yourself. For example.
2100 SAT
700 Math II, 780 Physics
4.22 GPA
8 APs (list them)
List all expected activities and leadership.
At least with that, people can guess.
I don’t know if you’ve been misinformed or are thinking of another school, because UCSF, although an excellent medical school, is only for graduate students. I assume you’re looking for undergraduate preparation, right?
