<p>Looking good, you should have a shot</p>

<p>You’re not a published author.</p>

<p>Decent shot, still a reach for you. Biggest weakness is lack of significant EC’s (especially during the summers, you could have done so much more on top of taking classes! You basically wasted your 9th grade summer too since self studying Algebra 2 couldn’t have taken more than 100 hours) and awards - too many scattered around and doesn’t show one passion. Make sure you kick ass this summer since that will prob be the most interesting thing on your application.</p>

<p>Definitely have a decent shot; good luck! :)</p>

<p>His/her upcoming summer internship at Johns Hopkins will really stand out. :slight_smile:
If this student can be president or captain of something senior year (like president NHS, captain debate team), it would be a nice topper. Good luck to him/her!</p>
