Bio M- 780
Math 2- 760
i took AP calc AB and APUSH last year and bombed both exams but i had at least an A- in each class so i hope that’s fine

also both of my parents graduated from Northwestern so i’m a double legacy :slight_smile:

thanks!

Your academics are alright, your ECs are pretty good and since you’re a double legacy, I would say you have a pretty good chance of getting in, especially if you apply ED.

Good luck!
