A bunch of other stuff I'm probably forgetting</p>

<p>-I also volunteered at my local library one summer</p>

<p>I know my problem is that I have no volunteering/community work but that's what I lost being so focused on school. </p>

<p>Number one choice schools: UIC's GPPA Program, Wash U's 7-year dual med program, Northwestern
Other schools: Loyola Chicago, U of I
I'm honestly at a loss in deciding what I want to do because I could try for better schools but I dont want to get my hopes up. Any schools that would work would be much appreciated!</p>

<p>Loyola Chicago-safety
U of I-safety
UIC- match
WashU-match
Northwestern-high match</p>

<p>Check out CMU & Emory! You sound like the kind of student who would like it there and I’d call them a match for you. </p>

<p>sorry, but the person above me’s post is very inaccurate for WashU and Northwestern (they are VERY competitive). Your realistic chances would be:
WashU: low reach/reach
Northwestern: low reach/reach
UIC: low match
Loyola: safety
U of I: safety
Your ACT is good, so I wouldn’t take the SAT if I were you. but definitely take a few SAT subject tests. For you, I would look at schools ranked 15-30</p>

<p>NWU: Reach (HPME or not)
WUSTL: Reach
UIC GPPA: Low match/Match
Loyola Chicago: Safety
UIUC: Low match</p>
