<p>Good stats. I’d like to hear more about your passion with medicine though. I’d say match with WashU, NW, JHU. Maybe have more safeties. Good luck with Intel =) </p>

<p>You have a good chance with those stats. (Though with many of the ivies, it’s still a crapshoot). Good luck</p>

<p>I’d say you have quite a strong chance at any of them with those stats. Plus the published material will really stand out. </p>

<p>I agree with noragon. However, there is a problem if the journals/competitions don’t get out in time since they seem to be a relatively large part of the application. Still, you have a strong chance to get into a few of them, especially JHU, Washu, Cornell, and maybe Brown.</p>

<p>Looks solid, but the hook needs to be a little stronger, more things in there perhaps? so if you are going for a medical student put in a couple more ECs to reinforce it :slight_smile:
If you coould chance me that’d be great</p>
