<p>I want to be a biology major and need some advice as to whether or not I should even think about applying… So if u can chance me that would be great!
So I have my test scores from June (kinda disappointed) and I am finally getting into the college search. Here are my stats:
my GPA is a 4.0 unweighted and is a 4.19-4.2 Weighted (took too many regular classes freshman and sophomore year… class rank is 16/350ish-- should go up after first semester b/c of my 6 APs). For senior year I am gonna take AP English Lit, AP Calc BC, AP Stats, AP Psychology, AP Chem, AP econ maro, and AP Econ micro (so, I think my course load is somewhat rigorous).</p>
<p>Total AP tests- 11-13 (self studying for 2 of them this year–APHG and Comparative gov)… besides the ones mentioned above, I have taken AP Bio (5), APES(5), AP English Language(5), and AP World History(3)</p>
<p>I just took the SAT for the second time and got a 2160 (780M,700CR,680W,11 essay). I am retaking in October and have already increased my score to about a 2250-2300.
Took the ACT for the second time and got a 32 (32.25 lol) …I was expecting a 34-36… I will retake in september
Also got a 780 on Bio sat 2 and 740 on math level 2.</p>
<p>As for awards, freshman year I won the all A’s award, geomerty student of the year, and communication applications student of the year. Sophmore year (at my new school), I recieved the principals honor roll. This year, I won the Discus Award, an academic letter (for receiving a high GPA), and the prinicpal’s honor roll twice. I will also be awarded several awards for the congressional award (probably bronze, silver, and gold certificates).</p>
