How do I stack up at UPenn?

<p>Thank you for taking the time to read this everybody; I really appreciate it ! I am a sophomore, and I am starting to think about colleges-I would like to receive others' opinions on how I stack up or if I am even on the righ track. I posted a thread earlier, but I would like to better post my resume.</p>

<p>I am interested in biomedical engineering and would like to become a patent attorney. I am looking at some Ivies (Brown, UPenn, Harvard, Yale, and Dartmouth), Duke, Vanderbilt, MIT, Hopkins, Wake, and Chapel Hill. </p>

<p>I have NOT taken the SAT yet (will take in fall). My mom went to Brown and I have done two summer camps there. I am 100% Greek (child of immigrant) living in the South. </p>

<p>Class Rank: Tied for first (39 total kids in grade) in rigorous private school</p>

<p>Passions/Interests:</p>

<p>Inventions: I have about 20 inventions that I whipped up, and will try to work to begin patent process this summer.</p>

<p>Debate: I just completed my first year of debate, and I loved it! I set a school record for best debut, have continued to hold best overall record in LD, and appear to be best LD debator in school.</p>

<p>Medical Assistance: This summer, I am doing an extensive volunteer oppurtunity/internship where I shadow doctors and work with underpriveleged individuals.</p>

<p>Basketball: I have been Captain + MVP for back-to-back seasons now and have grown greatly in the game. I impressed a Brown scout last year while doing a camp, and I would be open to playing in college (already have one scholarship lined up).</p>

<p>Clarinet: I have played clarinet for over six years now, and enjoy it greatly. I write my own music sometimes, but I just love the sound of this instrument.</p>

<p>Church Service: I have been altar assistant for three years now in my Church, participate in youth group projects, and will have leadership oppurtunity next year.</p>
