<p>Can anyone chance me for some schools with really strong biology departments or computer science departments?</p>
<p>SAT: 17-2000 (awaiting score)
ACT: 30-32
GPA (Unweighted, at the end of senior year): 2.8-3.0 (explained below)
AP's taken: 6-9 (mostly 4's, a couple 5's, a couple 3's)
SAT 2 scores: Biology tests: 700-800
Financial status: mom is waiting for a few things to be paid off before she starts looking into this (ignore for now, will deal with this when the time comes)
ECs: 2 years volunteering at various medical related internships; including: dentists office, dermatology research lab, general med., other labs, etc. also 2 years in Key Club (volunteer organization at school)
Other: dad didn't go to college, mom only finished 1.5 years, and an extremely unique family situation prohibiting me from doing well in school/having a positive life (no preppy stories here, all real life hardships...nothing like "so I couldn't do piano for another 3 years because my dad made me start 4 more clubs at school!")</p>

<p>UCLA, university of Washington, wash u, Stanford, Cornell, Columbia, Vanderbilt, Baylor, johns hopkins, UNC-chapel hill, Harvard, Boston U, northwestern, Wisconsin-Madison, Minnesota-twin cities, tufts university, duke, UCD, UCSD, Miami (FL), Hendrix, Gettysburg, Rice, Minnesota, Dartmouth, UNH, Washington State, Oregon State, Miami U, Auburn, Humboldt State, Colorado State, Texas A&M, SIUC, U Maine, Oklahoma State, and Wyoming, UGA, Michigan, Colorado-Boulder, Washington, Rutgers, Arizona</p>
