<p>I'm going into my junior year at the start of this school year.
I have a 3.9 GPA, in the top 5-10 % of my class (not exactly sure of my rank as of right now, it was in the top 10% last year, but my GPA went up, so I'm not sure if that affected my rank by that much)
My ECs are speech and debate (I place regularly and have attended the state & national tournaments), model un (i have a leadership position this coming year, and i'm practically guaranteed the president position my senior year), NHS, and student council. i attended the state science fair sophomore year and i'm planning on going again junior year. I volunteer at my town's children's museum and through church, and i have 200+ hours so far.
I'm taking the toughest classes available to me.
I haven't taken the SAT/ACT yet, but I've been studying hard for the PSAT and I think I'm doing pretty well.
I want to go into Biomedical engineering.
Is there anything specific I should be doing to help me get into case? Any activities that would look especially good or anything?</p>
<p>anyone have any ideas?</p>
<p>Show interest and study for that ACT/SAT, Case doesn’t seem to be particularly hard to get into for a high stat student like you(73% acceptance rate) with middle act 26-32 and only 65% in top ten percent of graduating class(college toolkit).</p>
<p>Just write a good essay and you should be a shoo-in for Case Western. Have 2000+ SATs, maybe 1900 is enough because you have stellars stats and very good ECs.</p>
<p>If you’re looking at BME then I assume you’re going to take the hardest math and science classes at your HS. If you do well on your SAT you might get offered some decent merit money. Have you visited the campus? DS is going through orientation right now (also BME).
Good luck!</p>
