<p>Not very many APs being offered, but I am taking 1 this year (English). I will take more next year. I am also taking one dual credit class (Accepted - most in state schools.) Other classes are honors unless they are not offered as honors, dual, or AP.</p>

<p>I'm not sure about your chances, but I wanna tell you one thing...</p>

<p>For some weird reason stanford is hesitant to add the biomedical engineering major, even though they have the facility and the faculty. Still, they have other relatively similar majors within the school of engineering like biomedical computation and biomechancal engineering. It is not certain when they would add biomedical engineering, but it'll take at least a couple of years.</p>

<p>Thanks. And my GPA is based on a 4.0 Scale</p>

<p>Since you are just an incoming junior, you have time to work on test scores. Your overall resume looks strong, but you really need to get the test scores up. My son was waitlisted with 1410 on the old SAT, 204 on the PSAT, and a 3.98 GPA (unweighted). And he had tons of good EC's and was a legacy. So you might want to do some study for the PSAT and SAT.</p>

<p>By the way, congrats on the Eagle! My boys are both Eagle Scouts, too.</p>
