<p>Obviously you are well qualified for all of your listed schools, and, in a perfect world, you deserve to be admitted to all of them. Stanford is not easy to predict, Northwestern favors ED candidates, and the others look likely to admit you. However, this will be the most competitive admissions year yet, so the tone or "voice" conveyed in essays will be important. Recommendations are also very important at these most selective schools.</p>

<p>I second what icy said.</p>

<p>Rec's will be a key player into whether or not you are admitted, as well as the essay. Remember- be yourself and believe in yourself.</p>

<p>your SATs are very good and your gpa could be explained in your letter of rec from your college counselor.. if your gpa was in the 90s (what is that like above a 3.6?) then you would have an excellent shot.. you should have a good chance at johns hopkins though.. maybe i have a skewed view of it bc its easier for me to get in since i live 10 minutes away! but i think you should get in there.. if you are really interested in going to med school or doing pre-med or anything i know hopkins is really excellent for that</p>

<p>anyone elseeee</p>
