<p>■■■■■? 3 hard science AP classes by sophomore year? And 6 AP classes by sophomore year? I couldn’t even take AP classes until junior year. Moreover, you stated that you are a sophomore, meaning you had to have done all this by the end of freshman year. I smell bull. </p>

<p>And commas to separate would be nice.</p>

<p>I mean I am a Junior now and this was last two years and the summers to I go to a year round school with one month break (Private School)</p>

4

<p>And you have completed everything you list? Or have you listed the things you plan to do in your high school career and the scores you plan to achieve? (I have to agree that looks a bit much for someone who lists their birthdate as August, 1995.)</p>

<p>You mention that you are new to the site. Typically, you would post your actual, current statistics and accomplishments. You can note your goals - such as you might say you *plan *to be on tennis team for *all four years <a href=“whether%20you%20are%20a%20sophomore%20or%20junior,%20you%20have%20not%20yet%20been%20on%20the%20team%20for%20four%20years”>/I</a> and hope to be captain (if you are the captain as a 15 year old junior who skipped a grade, that might be noteworthy, though) - and the responses you get will be much more meaningful. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>nope its been canceled!</p>

<p>true …</p>

<p>Jesus. Why bother going to USC? I think NASA has a position for you already. lol</p>

<p>Your chances of getting into the USC BS/MD program are 0% even with your real/or fake resume simply because the program has been discontinued.</p>

<p>Well, I smell a little bit of Bull ■■■■ because you took the SATs in your sophomore year, and you took the SAT II Subject Tests…
Well, assuming that your resume is correct and fully true, it is very hard to tell if you can get into the program because you still have your Junior year, and parts of Senior year to complete. You can totally flunk out of Junior year and end up with a 3.4-3.5 unweighted. Also, USC BS/MD program is very good, and the average unweighted GPA to get into the school is a 3.8-3.9. So, what I would say is to apply to a variety of BS/MD programs because there is a lot in the nation. Even though USC is great, others like Rutgers/UMDNJ BS/MD program is also really great. Another great BS/MD program is the University of the Sciences BS/MD program in Pennsylvania. </p>

<p>But seriously, why BS about your resume. It’s not like you can BS to admissions counselors. </p>

<p>^ You are bumping a 3-year-old thread and USC no longer has a bac/md program (this year’s juniors are the final class).</p>
