As an Asian, all of your stats are rather low; however, being a female in STEM does increase your chances in BME. Your GPA is really high, and try to make your essay better if you haven’t applied early action.

Apply to the College of Engineering, and to their Women In Engineering program as that will increase your chances of admission.
