SAT II: Bio 750; Chem 690 ( Ouch, the lady wouldn't allow me to go to the bathroom, test anxiety) Math II: 670 (I took it before I know what pi radian is, very silly. However, I am taking math 12 and AP calc together and have 97% for math and 99% for AP calc last term, the class average was 65ish% and second highest was 96%.<-- hopefully this will compensate)
