<p>everything seems good with ure stats and extra curriculars, cus u show dedication, leadership, and excellence
BUT (yes a but) make sure to take plenty of AP’s/honors and do well in those. Also, take some SATII’s, preferrably in one science and one nonscience
Finally, try getting some more experience in medicine. Try shadowing, research, or volunteering at a hospital (preferrably all)
doing that, id say you have a pretty good shot at most programs</p>

<p>I agree that you will probably get into at least a few programs with your stats, but maybe try to do some research and take satIIs. Most schools require chemistry and math II, and some schools like to see that you are also gifted in writing to see how well you communicate, so consider taking the literature SATII. In terms of your SAT1, your scores should get you into most schools. If you’re looking at the more prestigious programs such as Northwestern (and I think Brown requires this too), then you’d be safest with 750s across the board. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
