Chance Me For BS MDs and HPME!

Pre-Med & Medical School Multiple Degree Programs
1

Hey guys,

I was applying to Northwestern’s HPME and a bunch of other BS/MD and BA/MD around NJ, NY, and PA like Drexel, Rutgers, and Temple.

I was wondering if you guys could chance me for HPME and if possible, other BS/MDs because a lot of BS/MDs look for similar aspects in an application.

I am absolutely sure that medicine is my choice, and I know what I am getting into, and I am beyond excited to pursue a rigorous BS/MD curriculum and medicine.

ACT: 34
Top 6% of class
Unweighted: 4.0 out of 4.0
Asian Female

SAT Bio: 770
SAT Chem: 780
SAT Math Level 2: 800

AP Biology: 4
AP Physics 1: 4
AP Chemistry: 5

National Finalist for Chemistry Olympiad
Won an Essay Contest to help kids
Was Part of Varsity Golf for Two years and won the Coaches and Scholar Athlete Award for Golf

Hospital Volunteering: 150 hours

Shadowing: 20+ hours, still continuing

Research: Researched a popular disease at New Jersey Medical School with a biomedical team

I have strong essays (both common app and supplemental) and have a bunch of clubs and honors societies with 3+ leadership positions.

I have really good recommendation letter and a lot of ECs that I did not mention here are really unique.

With all this effort, do you guys think that I have a shot at getting into atleast one of the local BS/MDs around NJ, NY, and PA or HPME?

I know HPME is really competitive with kids with perfect 36 and 5 on AP Bio and atleast 50 shadowing hours because I only have 20.

Is it worth even applying to HPME? What about my chances at those other BS/MDs because I have already applied there.

CHANCE ME! THANK YOU GUYS!

@ShrutiSapphire Trying to know your chance is futile. No one knows for sure. Even adcoms of one program can not predict the outcome of another program (whether BS/MD or later MD). It is as good as flip a coin.

Your profile is a typical profile of a BS/MD candidate and you have equal chance. You have covered most of the key areas. Apply broadly and be open to go via regular channel also if need be.

Apply all feeder school for NJMS (TCNJ, NJIT, Rutgers, Stevenson), Stonybrook, Rochester, Pitts, PSU, CWRU, Temple, Northwestern (no pain, no gain - just apply ), OU, Tulsa.

@GoldenRock - I believe you mean Stevens Institute of Technology, which has a significant contingent of students attending Rutgers NJMS (not “Stevenson”).
