UPenn, JHU, UT-Austin, and UChicago. I will chance back just post your link!!!!!!!!

<p>Desired colleges: UPenn, JHU, UT-Austin, and UChicago.</p>

<p>High School:
• Mathematics and Science Academy (For junior and senior year); I went to another, less rigorous high school for my freshman and sophomore year of high school.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.8 Un-weighted, I do not know my weighted GPA.</p>

<p>SAT: 1870, but that's subject to change once I receive the results from the June SAT test.</p>

<p>Course load:
• Six years of math
-(including Pre-Calculus and Calculus)
• Five Years of literature
• Four Years of Biological Science
• Four years of History/Social studies
• Three years of French
• 60+ College hours
-(The Math and Science Academy is actually at a University, so instead of taking AP classes, I am taking ACTUAL COLLEGE LEVEL COURSES, with ACTUAL PROFESSORS)</p>

<p>Rank: (9/83) so I’m not quite in the top 10 %  subject to change determining on the number of incoming juniors next year.</p>

<p>Certifications/Qualifications:
• Microsoft Office Specialist and IC3 Computer Certification</p>

<p>EC's:
• Music: 5 years of music training,
o I have consistently received 1st and 2nd place Solo and Ensemble
o Made All city orchestra
o I play my saxophone at church as well.
o Received Outstanding Musician (freshman, and sophomore year)
• Other:
o UTMB Summer program (Medical program)
o I was a TA in Anatomy and Physiology
o I am working in as a Research Assistant in a Neuroscience Lab; I am doing research on epilepsy. </p>

<p>Academic Recognitions:
• Consistently made A honor roll or A/B honor role
• Received President’s and Dean’s list at University of Texas at Brownsville</p>

<p>Things I will do this summer to beef up my resume:
• Volunteer: I live in an underserved area, so opportunities are scarce; however if I find opportunities at the local hospital, I will take advantage.
• NHS
• Running for Student Council or starting a literature club at school.
• Biomedical research and publicationI got this internship but its starts next fall, not in the summer.</p>

<p>Intended college major/minor: Neurology or Biomedical Science/ Music or Theatre</p>

<p>Background:
-African American, from west africa.
-I speak 3 different languages
-I love the outdoors, literature, medicine and I am the Eldest of three.</p>

<p>It’d definitely help to get your SAT score around or above ~2100 as you’re competing with applicants with near perfect scores in those schools.</p>

<p>Your ECs seem to follow general themes such as music and science, which is great as they reflect your interests. </p>

<p>At the moment I’d say you’re…</p>

<p>High reach at UPenn (high reach for most anyway)
Reaches at JHU and UChicago</p>

<p>Unsure about UT-Austin as I do not know the university very well. Just get your scores up a bit and should have a decent chance at these schools. </p>
