Chances of Getting into Graduate School

Graduate School
1

<p>Hi, I'm a junior and applying to graduate school this year. I am getting a BS in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Johns Hopkins University and would like to know the chances I have at getting into some of the schools I am considering. I am planning on taking the GRE in a month, but my previous Math Scores are: SAT 800 & ACT 36. My GPA is 3.55 and my major GPA is 3.75.</p>

<p>I am considering:</p>

<p>Princeton
UPenn
Northwestern
Johns Hopkins
MIT
Stanford
Georgia Tech (possibly)</p>

<p>Just would like some opinions of my chances or school choices.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Applying to PhD or masters? Are you planning to apply for any fellowships? What sort of research or work experience do you have?</p>

<p>PhD. I started working in a lab this summer and will continue during the school year. I work with mammalian cell cultures and have learned a lot in the few months I’ve been there: (passing, freezing, transfection, lysing, gel electrophoresis, Western Blot, Midiprep, PCR). I’m not really sure about fellowships right now, but it is something I’ll have to look at.</p>
