<p>Junior at Stanford, Computer Science and Philosophy
GPA: 3.5
Experience: Research at Blau Lab (stem cells), Research at Stanford Genome TEchnology Center
E/C: some publications in Stanford Scientific Magazine, Dance Marathon Fundraising Executive, Chi Omega Fraternity Web Design,</p>
<p>I also just got recommended to do the Ethics in Society honors program for my Philosophy major. </p>
<p>I know this sounds bad, but I am still really interested in "prestige". I want to get into a good bioinformatics / computer science / bioengineering grad school, like Stanford, Cal, MIT, Duke, etc. Do I have any chances? What about law school (I'm also considering that)?</p>
<p>Stanford has an amazing reputation, and wanting to attend a grad school on the same level is expected. I am assuming that you test well, so the GRE and LSAT should not be a major hurdle for you. </p>
<p>The top law schools in California: Stanford (as you already know), UCB, UCLA, and USC
OOS: Yale, Harvard, NYU, Georgetown, and Columbia.</p>
<p>Thanks scguy;
I"m wondering if you know about how much my low GPA will hurt me…3.5? I can probably get it up to a 3.6 by senior year but I’m still worried about it… I have a lot of B’s …computer science is a pretty hard major and I’m worried about how I’ll compare to all the fuzzy prelaw majors with 4.0’s and above</p>
