Hi there
I’m going to major in biology and I’m thinking of applying to UCSD, UC Berkeley, Northeastern, Tufts and Case Western
I already took 2 SAT subject tests, which is what most colleges require I think.
I got a 710 in Bio and 760 in Math II… I didnt study for them…
I have the Physics SAT this week, but I dont have time to study for that either… I was thinking maybe I just won’t use it if the score is really that bad, but that would leave me with 710 and 760.
I was wondering: Are those good enough scores? Especially because I’m going to be majoring in Biology?
I live in NJ so I’m out of state so my scores are supposed to be higher for pretty much everything I think.
I’m also not just looking to be accepted. I am hoping for financial aid because my family cannot pay full tuition for some of the schools.
I am also asian… I dont really know if that’s relevant, but maybe just in case it does
My other stats are:
ACT: 32 composite (35 math, 34 english, 31 with writing, 28 reading, 32 science)
SAT I: 1st time: 2060
2nd time: 2120 (660 CR, 700 W, 760 M)
AP Calc AB: 5
AP English I: 4
AP French: 4
GPA: 4.26
I play clarinet and a chinese instrument, I’m president of my school’s environmental club, graduated from chinese school, French Honor Society, Math Honor Society, Marching Band for 2 years, have done ABRSM up to grade 6, 9 years of chinese orchestra, etc.
I would say my course load has been on the rigorous side, but hasn’t been crazy or anything.
