I work on breast cancer research there. I volunteer during the summer and school year. 10th and 11th grade I had 300+ hours each. Freshman year I volunteered at community center and got 75 hrs. Also freshman year, I helped my middle school participate in a robotics competition.</p>

<p>I am interested in majoring in Biology. I would appreciate it if you could guess if I have a shot at being accepted into these schools? Also, if any schools in the Philadelphia/PA region have good Bio programs, please say so.</p>
<p>Thanks for your time!
