<p>lol, it's a possiblility..</p>

<p>Johns Hopkins (ED): 50%
UCSD:99%
Brown: 25%
Rice: 65%
USC:85%
Northeastern:99%
Willamette:99%</p>

<p>you have really great chances .. your stats are great esp. in the URM pool, it's just the ECs/awards that are slightly lacking but still i think you will get into most of those schools.</p>

5

<p>Johns Hopkins (ED) Match
UCSD Safety
Brown Slight reach/match
Rice match
USC match/safety
Northeastern safety
Willamette safety</p>

6

<p>i agree with mj93.
maybe get a leadership position in nhs too? but you're in great shape.</p>

7

<p>ECs are kinda weak but otherwise your stats should get you into most of your choices...</p>

8

<p>I'd say 95% in at JHU ED. I've seen people with lower stats get into there ED.</p>

9

<p>Do I have any chance for BME @ Hopkins ED?</p>

10

<p>That's a separate application, but i think you have a good chance at that, perhaps even better if you intern now or do some major science EC.</p>

<p>take northeastern off ur list for cryin out loud
u have a 2300, perfect GPA, at an IB magnet school
why wont u try for better
Northeastern Pretty much sucks, compared to schools u should be looking at (unless u meant northwestern)</p>

<p>seriously
ur in at all of them
shoot for higher like HYPS, IVYs, and other super elite top privates
with ur grades u could even have a chance at schools like great schools in europe</p>

<p>Well, my ECs are seriously lacking in comparison to most CCers (with similar stats not getting into big-name schools). Northeastern is on there as a safety (hopefully). HYPS doesn't really appeal to me and Brown is the only Ivy I can see myself seriously attending (Princeton maybe, but the rest...). I considered MIT and Franklin Olin and I suppose I shall add those to my list. Europe is way too expensive for me and scholarships for US attendance there is FIERCE!!! Lol.</p>

<p>i'm not sure about Hopkins BME. it's obviously the most competitive major at jhu and i don't think your ECs reflect your passion for science. however, you do have excellent "numbers", so i'd definitely give it a shot. i'd say you have a 50% chance of jhu ED (BME). with other majors i'd probably say 75% chance.</p>

<p>good luck!</p>
