Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hi there. I'm a junior in high school right now and I just got my ACT scores back and have been thinking about college admissions and whatnot. </p>

<p>Rank (as of now) 1/500 (tied with five others)
My uw GPA is 4.0
ACT: 30 (32E, 30M, 30R, 26S)
AP's: APUSH, CHEM, CALC, ENGLISH, and possible BIO
expecting to get 4's and 5's on the tests.
I will also have taken a few dual enrollment courses</p>

<p>EC's:</p>

<p>4 years of tennis
3 years of student congress
4 years of chess club (state qualifying)
4 years of academic team
around 30 volunteer hours at a local hospital
NHS member
2 years of Link Crew (to help out freshmen)
Started a recycling club</p>

<p>Some of the schools I am looking into include:
UIUC (state school)
Stanford
Northwestern
Michigan
Columbia
UPenn
potentially other Ivies and similar schools.</p>

<p>I am interested in Bioinformatics and plan on going to med school.
Could you also give me a few schools that offer bioinformatics undergrad programs?</p>

<p>Please and Thank you, greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>no ivies with your current ACT scores</p>

<p>UIUC non-engineering: Safety
UIUC engineering: Match
UMI Ross/engineering: Match
UMI regular: Low match</p>

<p>Everyone else is a reach.</p>

<p>Alright, and are the schools that I matched with any good in the sciences? Like, I know what rankings may show, but they are not always accurate. I plan on going to med school, but don’t really know a major as yet. Bioinformatics, from what I know, is only a graduate level subject.</p>

<p>i agree with catria here. you could go into a general bio major or a biomedical major. </p>

<p>chance me back bud?

<p>Take the SATS a couple of times and get a good feel for your range. You have time to increase your potential an look for more colleges, work hard junior year. All are reach schools for any student</p>

<p>GPA is really the only thing that stands out about this application. I can’t imagine you distinguish yourself from the tons of other 4.0 GPA kids out there. Michigan you should be fine, Northwestern is a high match as well, Columbia iffy and the rest I don’t know.</p>
