<p>Hey, so I'm a high school junior, and I'm starting to think about where I should apply to next fall. Right now, I have a 3.7 weighted GPA (I go to an extremely competitive school, and I'm taking the hardest courses I can), and a 29 ACT score, though I'm planning on retaking it in the hopes of getting a 31+ score. I'm in a ton of ECs ( I do community service, I'm on board of 3 clubs, and I started my own. I also had a short paid job working at an IT camp).
I want to major in biology, and eventually pursue a career in biotechnology (either academia or industry).
I know my GPA is a bit low, but I'm hoping a strong ACT should somewhat compensate...
I live in CA, and hope to attend either UCI or UCD.
Which colleges should I look into, which majors should I pursue...
Help is appreciated!</p>
