<p>My father attended University of Chicago for a year, my mother went to Yale for music.</p>

<p>I want to attended med school, but will likely take the courses neccessary to take the MCATS and apply while majoring in history or social studies. I plan on minoring in chinese language</p>

<p>My reach schools i'm considering are:
University of Chicago (dream school)
Johns-Hopkins
Washington in St. Louis
Haverford (?) not sure if reach or match</p>

<p>My matches i'm considering are:
Haverford (?) above
Macalester
UNC
Northeastern </p>

<p>My Safety:
NC State</p>

<p>How realistic are these?</p>

<p>You are in at State for sure. UNC is a low match (in-state) meaning that you stand a very good chance. You are a little better than 50-50 at Northeastern and Macalester, around 50-50 at Haverford, a little below 50-50 at WUSTL and JHU. Chicago will be tough, but not out of reach, especially if you get your SAT score up a little bit. Do you count as legacy?</p>

<p>Thanks for the chances! On legacy, I’m not exactly sure. My dad went for a year as a graduate, but left because the proffesor he wanted to study with (Ogden) changed to another school. How are my chances for NC State Honor College? </p>
