<p>I know its a crap shoot, but if you viewed this, PLZ COMMENT</p>

<p>You have everything in line for Hopkins, and retaking the ACT will really not help your chances. The diff. between 33-34-35 will never be a deciding factor in admissions.</p>

<p>What are you applying into, that might actually change your chances (i.e. for natsci, you don’t really have the research/competitions that are associated with the hardcore natsci majors, but for Int. Relations or Public Health, you have a lot that would make you a good fit [hospital volunteering, debate, model un])?</p>

<p>Overall I think you have a really good shot ED.</p>

<p>Thanks anouchi! I’m planning on major either anthropology, biochem, or biology.</p>

<p>Anthropology should be really interesting at Hopkins!</p>

<p>Hopkins, however, does not offer a biochem major, but it does offer a rigorous B.S. in Molecular Cell Biology, which is essentially the exact same thing as biochemistry :)</p>

<p>Biology at Hopkins: it’s Johns Hopkins, you don’t need further explanation :)</p>
