<p>Hi, I'm a junior right now and I was wondering what the chances of me getting into PharmD schools are. I live in New Jersey and I'm hoping for a school nearby.(Preferably Rutgers)</p>
<p>I was born in Korea but went to elementary, middle, and high school in both Korea and the US. I spent my 9th and 10th grade in Korea, and another year in 10th in the US. Due to the fact that I spent most of my childhood in the US, my GPA from Korea wasn't all that good so it's bringing down my GPA a LOT. I talked to my guidance counselor about it and she said that it was more likely that schools would pay more attention to the grades I got in the US. What are your opinions? Is that really true?</p>
<p>GPA: 9th-3.3
10th in Korea-3.15
10th in US-4.0
11th(for now)-4.0</p>
<p>Last time I looked at my transcript, weighted: 3.4something, unweighted:4.3</p>
<p>SAT: 2160(CR/M/W-760/700/700 I'm planning on taking it again for the third time next March to raise my math/writing grade :/ )</p>
<p>SAT II: Planning on taking bio in May, chem in June, and math 2 in September</p>
<p>AP classes: bio, lang&comp(will take tests this year) physics, calc a/b, chem(senior year)</p>
<p>EC: RCY VP(9), RCY President's Award(9), Green Doctors' President's Award(10), volunteered at Solidarity for Migrant Immigrants(10), 3rd dan (black belt) in Taekwondo(10), president/founder of anthropology club(10), Hyundai Piano Competition runner-up(10), in-school volunteering(10), pit orchestra(10), Children&teen's ensemble at church(10-11), Junior Editor of church newspaper(10-11), art club(10-11), mural club(10-11), environmental club president(10-11), future healthcare professionals co-president(10-11), summer school TA(10), hospital volunteering(10), Asian cultural club co-president(11), peer tutoring(11), national honor society(11), French club(11), math league(11), science league chem varsity(11), etc.</p>
