How's the Bio program?

<p>I'm planning on applying early action to Michigan to be a bio major and go into premed. Can anyone give some insight into what the program is like, how the professors are, and if it's a top notch program like let's say Cornell or Brandeis.</p>

<p>Also, if anyone would like to chance me for LSA. I’m planning on applying EA. I want to go into pre-med or major in biology. I took the SAT twice:</p>

<p>1) 720 M, 620 R, 700 W
2) 710 M, 630 R, 730 W</p>

<p>I have a 95.36 unweighted GPA which includes all honors and 3 APs from last year (I am taking 4 more this year). Our school is a very competitive private school. I speak Russian fluently but I can’t read. I’ll also have 3 years of French and 4 years of Hebrew by the end of this year.</p>

<p>SAT 2
Bio- 720
Math II- 710
US History- 710</p>

<p>Notable APs:
English Language and Writing: 4</p>

<p>ECs:
Friendship Circle- I am one of ten buddies that spends two hours with a teenager with special needs and we do activities with them. This happens about twice a month in my school.
FLJCC- delivered food to elders in my town a couple times so they can have a full day’s worth of meals over the weekend
Basketball- 10th
Soccer- 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th and club team in 9th
Pre-Med Society (co-president)- 10th, 11th, 12th
Chess Team (co-captain)- 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th
Math Club/Team- 10th, 11th
Work- I’ve worked in a day camp this summer and last summer
Leadership:

  • captain of chess team
  • president of pre med society
  • head of my division in camp
  • I was handpicked by a group of teachers to act as an advocate/mentor to the 8th graders of a middle school and talk to them about the high school experience. We discussed with them how to cope with the difficulties and stress of high school and acted as a guide on how to make the most of their experiences.</p>

<p>Just a note, my school ends at 5:10 not at 2:30 so I don’t have as much time to participate in 15 different clubs. How do my chances look at LSA if I apply EA?</p>
