Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>So I figured I'd join the bandwagon and ask y'all what you guys think my chances at those so prestigious med programs and Ivies are:</p>

<p>GPA: right now it's a 4.5 ish... i think i broke 4.5 last semester (i'm a junior)</p>

<p>Tests :( : SAT: 2260 (800 math, 750 cr, 710 writing with 9 essay score :( )
ACT: 34 (i think my best was 32 science, 32 writing, 34 math, 35 reading)</p>

<p>APs: 5 on Govt.
3 on US History :(
<em>took 4 APs this year... expecting at least 1 5</em></p>

<p>Rank: 1 or 2 out of 300 some (i'm not sure whether i'm #1 or 2 right now :( )</p>

<p>Extra Curriculars: Varsity Tennis for entire high school career.
Senior Volunteer at Hospital
President of Computer Club
Member of National Honor Society
Executive Board Member
Class Officer
Work on Cancer Research at Local University
etc.</p>

<p>Ethnicity: Asian/Indian Subcontinent :)</p>

<p>I forgot what else I should put up there. And I'm probably going to apply to Harvard, Brown (and PLME ED), Northwestern (HPME), UPenn, VCU/MCV GMed, Rice/Baylor, UPitt Med Prog, etc.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot guys!</p>

<p>Stats are pretty good. You'll most likely be accepted to a couple of those BA/MD programs. </p>

<p>You'd get a lot more replies here:

<p>oh yeah, and i forgot, my brother is going to attend the VCU/MCV prog this coming fall.</p>

<p>well, i'd say you have a strong shot, but its really really a crapshoot for the med programs...I'm doin' them too. A friend of mine got into rice/baylor, but didn't get into rutgers' med program. All of these programs have acceptance rates of 10% and downwards, especially pitt, rice, northwestern, and brown plme. I'd say yer best shot would be vcu gmed, although, you potentially have a good shot at all of em...good essays and medical ec's are the key.</p>

<p>you have a very great chance for VCU G-Med! you are very similar to the dude who got in from my school (even the whole Indian stereotype, which may not work for you)</p>
