pleasee chance a premed hopeful?

<p>i'm interested in premed, but i'm not sure is this is the right school for that.
so just to start off, i think my hook will be my future. i plan on joining peace corps after undergrad, and then after my residency, i will join doctors without borders.
maybe become a ob/gyn because they are desperately needed in doctors w/o borders (medecins sans frontiers)</p>

<p>if this has any relevancy, i'm asian (chinese)
but from i've heard, being asian is a disadvantage under affirmative action.</p>

<p>my wgpa is 4.3 but unweighted is 3.6
not too good in my opinion.</p>

<p>sat II's
chemistry 770
i'll take bio this oct/nov and i think i'll get at least 750 on that</p>

<p>studied five years of french at my school and im fluent in chinese, if that's a lang plus?</p>

<p>APs</p>

<p>AP AB Calc- 4
AP Chem- 5
AP gov't and politics-5
AP Psychology- 5</p>

<p>senior year (this year) i will take

AP environmental science
AP biology</p>

<p>SATs (i know i need to improve)</p>

<p>math 650
writing 720
critical reading 660

<p>thanks thanks.
how important is teacher reccomendations?</p>

<p>I think you would have a great shot here at UCI. And if you get a 33 ACT score, you should even consider IVY’s, and higher ranking schools than UCI. </p>

<p>Teacher recommendations are not important at all at UCI, I don’t even think they are necessary.</p>

<p>I think you could get into UCI just fine.</p>

<p>Keep an open mind about your future career, study what you enjoy, things might change.</p>

<p>Yea you’re in easy. UCs don’t require teacher recommendations.</p>
