<p>any targets/safeties that i should be considering?</p>

<p>thanks again for your time and consideration</p>

<p>This is a pointless thread. You are in the top 75% even at Harvard and Stanford. You're fine, just relax and hope you get lucky.</p>

<p>nice job on act</p>

<p>is your sat in one sitting? was it your first time taking the SAT?</p>

<p>thanks. and yes it was.</p>

<p>i also have 400+ hours of community service...would that show passion?</p>

<p>You are an IBO medalist. That puts you as one of the top 4 students in biology in the nation. I would think that Harvard may be inclined to accept you.</p>
