Hi all!
I’m looking to major in biology/science as a premed student.
Right now I’m looking at Claremont McKenna, Pitzer, and Pomona. What are my chances of getting into one of these, if any at all? Thanks!
STATS
-4.0uw gpa (our school doesn’t do weighted, but probably ~4.3uw)
-ranked #1 out of 300, although there are 30 others who are ranked #1 (I know, it’s weird). So just top 10% for sure
-National Merit Semi-finalist
-1530 SAT
-SATII Math 2: 700, SATII Molecular Bio: 740
-almost full IB schedule for junior and senior year, with the exception of taking dual credit pre-calc and AP Calc instead of IB Math 1 & 2
-NHS vice president
-Key Club executive
-worked 30hrs/wk over the summer
-current volunteer at the same place as above^, 3-6hrs/wk.
-volunteered on a “junior board” (aka high school group which is supervised by a health foundation) for a year, helped set up a talent show that raised $10,000+ for victims of domestic violence.
-environmental club member. Helped start a composting program at our school
-I’m Asian, divorced parents, and first gen
-there are some other small things, but I think they would be pretty insignificant to my app, so I won’t add them
If I don’t have a good chance at these schools, are there any other similar schools that I would have a shot at? Any input is appreciated! Thanks:)
