<p>which HS are you currently attending?</p>

<p>Villanova does not have a BME program, but it has a fantastic Health professions advising program and top notch science related programs. </p>

<p>It’s hard to judge your chances with just your sophomore year grades, but assuming that you can maintain your 3.85 throughout your junior year and get a solid 2150+ on your SAT, you should be in good standing.</p>

<p>You’re EC’s are not entirely impressive. Try to get more leadership experience and substantive awards to showcase your commitment towards those clubs. Being the EIC of the yearbook is good, but if you’re just a member of red cross or relay for life, that doesn’t really mean much.</p>
