<p>There is no college in the country that your GPA is not good enough for.</p>

<p>What are your SATs/ACTs?</p>

<p>Also, how'd you have a 4.0 junior year when you had a 'B'?</p>

<p>Awesome ranks, top 1%, good for any school.</p>

<p>sat score mentioned during previous post...its low, so get ready to see it: 2170. first time taking it. plan to retake for 2300 in june.
planning to take satIIs in math, chem, bio
ahhh my concern is that my sat score, Bs and 4 on the calcab exam will count against me. i really want to get into med school but dont know my chances at ivy, nonivy, and accelerated med programs. I want to go to a seven year bs/md pgm, my parents dont think ill get in. so i dunno. Can someone please advise me? Thanks so much</p>

<p>um, i really dont mind any school, be it city-oriented or middle of nowhere. it just needs a comfortable, safe, beautiful/pretty campus. I dont have a preference as to the kind of kids cause im friends with a variety, from goths to preps to nerds. My high school as a bunch of kids, 3423 students, so I m kinda used to a big place where I know 1/8 of the students.
I guess im so unsure cause my best friend has gotten all As all marking periods and all fives on her aps and will probably get a near perfect on her sats and i keep comparing myself to her even tho i know i shouldnt.</p>

7

<p>An SAT of 2300+ would be amazing, but 2250 range should be fine.</p>

<p>4 will never work against you, and AP scores are barely factored in admissions, if at all.</p>

<p>As for the Bs, it depends on how many you have.</p>

<p>2170 is okay, but of course score higher to increase your chances at top colleges reasonably.</p>

<p>I have two B's ... is that something to worry about even though my GPAs all right?
also how much community service is enuf? i have about 250 thru the hospital and an additional 120 thru key club. need i worry about doing more?
And by the way, thanks for replying to me guys, im forever grateful. my parents have the lowest opinion of me...therefore i cannot even ask them for college advice.
Any more ideas/advice? am i an ivy/accelerated med pgm candidate or am i not....? ahh screaming, flipping out. why, you ask? bc i just took the calc bc exam and think i missed my chance for a 5. and NEED to take my sats again. porque? bc my score now = urnotevengettingintoanivysodontevenbother.</p>

<p>what are my chances at:
harvard
yale
stanford
duke
cornell
jhu
brown
colombia
dartmouth
penn
??????????????</p>

<p>Excellent shot at all of those, with the expections of Harvard, Princeton, and Yale, but that goes for pretty much everyone.</p>
